Optimization of a fluoroscope to reduce radiation exposure in pediatric imaging.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Conventional MRI sequences are often affected in neuropediatric imaging by unavoidable movements. Therefore, children younger than 6 years usually have to be examined under sedation/anesthesia. A new real-time MRI technique with automatic slice advancement allows for motion-robust T2-weighted volume coverage...
