Abstract

OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to evaluate the usefulness of breath-hold turbo spin echo with deep learning-based reconstruction (BH-DL-TSE) in acquiring fat-suppressed T2-weighted images (FS-T2WI) of the liver by comparing this method with conventional free-breathing turbo spin echo (FB-TSE) and breath-hold half Fourier single-shot turbo spin echo with deep learning-based reconstruction (BH-DL-HASTE).
