Abstract

Body magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is increasingly used for disease diagnosis, characterization, and monitoring in children of all ages. MRI has numerous advantages when compared to other imaging modalities, including a lack of ionizing radiation, superior soft tissue image contrast, and ability to provide objective, quantitative assessments. As MRI continues to evolve, pediatric body MRI examinations of the future will certainly be different than our current and past protocols. In this review article, we will discuss the present and likely future states of pediatric body MRI, including the increasing application of quantitative MRI methods, faster imaging techniques and implementation of abbreviated targeted protocols, and the growing use of artificial intelligence methods.
