Abstract:
This review focuses on the technical aspects that have allowed the development of practical bowel imaging using magnetic resonance imaging, including the acquisition methods and improvements in the underlying technology. An overview of the current techniques for small and large bowel magnetic resonance examinations is provided and the scene set for the more detailed examination of specific technical aspects such as contrast media and fecal tagging addressed in other later articles in this issue.
