Abstract
Abdominal imaging is the driving force that necessitates the development of numerous techniques for accelerated image acquisition in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Today, numerous techniques are available that enablerapid, high spatial resolution acquisition forboth T1 and T2 weighted images. Thesetechniques open new opportunities in the detection and classification of numerous pathologies in the abdomen. However, there is still ongoing progress in the development of fast and ultrafast sequences and promising techniques are currently close to clinical application. With these 4D-technologies, MRI is becoming the central imaging modality for dynamic, motion-compensated imaging of the parenchymal abdominal organs such as liver, pancreas and kidney. • Fast imaging techniques are especially valuable in the upper abdomen, as this region is particularly affected by respiratory motion.• Parallel imaging and k-space-based acceleration techniques are the basic components of fast 3 D sequences.• By further accelerating 3 D imaging with high spatial resolution, 4 D techniques become available.
