Abstract
PURPOSE: Acceleration of MRI acquisitions and especially of T2-weighted sequences is essential to reduce the duration of MRI examinations but also kinetic artifacts in liver imaging. The purpose of this study was to compare the acquisition time and the image quality of a single-shot fat-suppressed turbo spin-echo (TSE) T2-weighted sequence with deep learning reconstruction (HASTE) with that of a fat-suppressed T2-weighted BLADE TSE sequence in patients with focal liver lesions.
