Abstract

PurposeTo determine whether oxygen inhalation reducing artifacts in patients with previous transient severe motion (TSM) on gadoxetate-disodium-enhanced MRI. Materials and methodsFifty-one patients with TSM on previous gadoxetate-disodium-enhanced MRI (Baseline examination) were evaluated. Image quality in the examination with oxygen inhalation (Oxygen examination) and that in Baseline examination and the examination before Baseline examination without oxygen inhalation (Past examination) were qualitatively compared in dynamic study. ResultsImage quality was significantly higher in Oxygen examination than Baseline examination in arterial phase, but there was no statistical difference between Baseline and Past examinations. ConclusionOxygen inhalation improved image quality in patients with a prior episode of arterial phase TSM.
