Pediatric Transabdominal Ultrasound and Magnetic Resonance Cholangiopancreatography: Inpatient Imaging and Clinical Management

Final Pr. ID: Poster #: SCI-016
Transabdominal ultrasound (TUS) is a fast, safe, and well-established screening modality for identifying pancreas, liver, and biliary tract pathology in the pediatric population. A subset of patients with findings that are incompletely characterized by ultrasound or who have no sonographic evidence of disease but persistent clinical suspicion may receive magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography (MRCP). Pediatric inpatients who obtain an MRCP often experience longer inpatient stays, higher costs and delays in management. Relying on the sonographic findings or pursuing more advanced imaging as an outpatient may be a better option. To our knowledge, there have been no studies that have assessed whether inpatient MRCP performed following TUS in pediatric patients resulted in significant changes to additional inpatient treatment rendered. Our group ultimately looks to develop interdepartmental guidelines on when pursuit of an inpatient MRCP after TUS is indicated. Read More

The application of compressed SENSE MR imaging technique can help in reducing the acquisition time for magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography (MRCP). The present study was conducted to compare the acquisition time, diagnostic efficacy, and image quality of the newer compresses sense 3D-MRCP (CS-3D-MRCP) with conventional 3D MRCP (C-3D-MRCP) in children with pancreatitis.
