Overview
abstract
Tremendous advances have been made in abdominopelvic MR imaging, which continue to improve image quality, and make acquisitions faster and robust. We briefly discuss the role of non-Cartesian acquisition schemes as well as dual parallel radiofrequency (RF) transmit systems in the article to further improve image quality of the abdominal MR imaging. Furthermore, the use of hybrid PET/MR systems has the potential to synergistically combine MR imaging with PET acquisition, and the evolving role of hybrid PET/MR imaging is discussed.
