Brain diffusion MRI with multiplexed sensitivity encoding for reduced distortion in a pediatric patient population

Brain diffusion MRI with multiplexed sensitivity encoding for reduced distortion in a pediatric patient population

Background: Diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) is a valuable tool for routine imaging of the pediatric brain. However, the commonly used single-shot (ss) echo-planar imaging (EPI) DWI sequence is prone to geometric distortions and T2*-blurring. This study aimed to investigate in a pediatric population...
