Pediatric inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) poses significant challenges in diagnosis and management, particularly concerning the use of gadolinium-based contrast agents in magnetic resonance enterography (MRE). This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) compared to contrast-enhanced sequences in detecting active inflammation in pediatric IBD, with a focus on minimizing gadolinium exposure.

Final Pr. ID: Poster #: SCI-010
Magnetic resonance enterography (MRE) with oral contrast has become a necessary imaging modality for diagnosing various abnormalities. A challenge faced in younger patients is cooperation and oral contrast tolerance. General anesthesia (GA) becomes essential for optimal imaging, ensuring patient safety and comfort. This study describes our experience with conducting MREs under GA in high-risk pediatric patients and aims to demonstrate the safety and success of this practice. Read More
