Conical ultrashort echo time (UTE) MRI in the evaluation of pediatric acute appendicitis. [PDF]
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) sequences with conical k-space trajectories are able to decrease motion artifacts while achieving ultrashort echo times (UTE). We assessed the performance of free-breathing conical UTE MRI in the evaluation of the pediatric pelvis for suspected appendicitis.Our retrospective review of 84 pediatric patients who underwent
