Abstract
MRI provides comprehensive information on gastrointestinal diseases, including infectious, inflammatory, and malignant processes. We employ a set protocol incorporating breath-hold SS RARE imaging combined with gadolinium-enhanced, fat-suppressed SPGR imaging in the transverse and coronal planes. Bowel distension is accomplished with inexpensive water-soluble intraluminal contrast agents.
