Conditions
Brief summary
This study aims to compare image qualities between conventionally reconstructed MRI sequences and deep-learning reconstructed MRI sequences from the same data in patients who undergo Gd-EOB-DTPA enhanced liver MRI. The AIRTM deep learning sequence is applicable for various MRI sequences including T2-weighted image (T2WI), T1-weighted image and diffusion-weighted image (DWI). We plan to perform intra-individual comparisons of the image qualities between two reconstructed image datasets.
Interventions
Gd-EOB-DTPA enhanced MRI consists of T2-weighted image (T2WI), diffusion weighted image (DWI) and precontrast T1-weighted image (T1WI), dynamic T1WI (arterial, portal and transitional phases), and hepatobiliary phase.
