Issues with sedation for pediatric MRI
o Longer wait times for limited GA timeslots
o Increased exam and recovery time
o Increased cost
o Low risk of laryngospasm/aspiration
o Potential long-term neurologic effects

Studies suggesting potential long term effects of sedation/anesthesia
on young children • 2011 study from Mayo comparing 350 children
with GA exposure before 2yo with matched nonexposed controls showed that repeated exposures (but not single) had higher risk of developing LD and IEP (RP Flick, Pediatrics 2011)
• 2013 study of 8 fetal and neonatal macaques showed large inc in CNS apoptosis compared with ctrls when exposed to 5 hrs of propofol anes (C Creeley, Br J Anaes (2013)

NEJM Perspective states “we believe that parents and care providers should be made aware of the potential risks that anesthetics pose to the developing brain…. parents should consider carefully how urgently surgery (or MRI?) is needed, particularly in children under 3 years of age.”
BA Rappaport, N Engl J Med (2015)

Recent data suggesting lower anesthetic risk to children
PANDA study of 105 sibling pairs within 3yrs of age
One sibling had single anesthetic exposure for inguinal hernia repair < 36 mos of age, otherwise healthy
All received inhaled anesthetic for 20-240 minutes (median 80 mins)
No significant differences in global cognitive function, memory/learning, or behavior observed in exposed group
LS Sun, JAMA (2016)

General techniques to reduce respiratory motion artifacts in body MRI
1. Suspend respiration (BH)
2. Respiratory triggering (bellows, nav)
3. Decrease motion artifact conspicuity (e.g sat bands, PE direction)
4. Signal averaging (inc NEX)
5. Single shot techniques
![Page 9: Fast, free-breathing, and motion minimized techniques for ...](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022052601/628cd02277ba020bd1381007/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Fast free-breathing MRI techniques would benefit multiple
pediatric populations • ER patients (e.g.
appendicitis, seizure)
• Genetic syndromes
• History of cancer
• Abdominal lesions detected on US
![Page 10: Fast, free-breathing, and motion minimized techniques for ...](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022052601/628cd02277ba020bd1381007/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Benefits of rapid free-breathing MRI protocols
1. Allow children to undergo MRI awake using DVD goggles or other AV distraction techniques without interruption
2. Decrease sedation meds and need for intubation/ventilation for children requiring anesthesia

Radial-based T2-weighted imaging
(PROPELLER, BLADE, MultiVane)
Cartesian sampling
Radial sampling
• Radial k-space sampling
• Oversamples center of k-space with relative peripheral k-space undersampling
• Disperses artifact along the phase encoding direction (radially).
• Motion correction option (prospective phase correction)
![Page 12: Fast, free-breathing, and motion minimized techniques for ...](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022052601/628cd02277ba020bd1381007/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)

Motion correction for radial T2-weighted imaging can make image quality worse
when resp motion is significant
Low resolution blade reconstruction with rigid body translation/rotation
In-plane motion lead to correction to wrong blade
Thru-plane motion not corrected (2D multislice)

Coronal acquisition of radial T2-weighted sequences can have more motion artifacts from
thru-plane respiration and bowel peristalsis

Comparable acquisition times for resp triggered radial and Cartesian T2-weighted images in the abdomen
Age range 1-8 years: Cartesian: 4.89 + 2.49 mins (range 2.61-7.63 mins) Radial: 4.33 + 1.40 mins (range 2.67-6.67 mins)

Young children with fast/shallow/irregular respiration can lead to problems with
respiratory triggering

Free-breathing radial hybrid 3D multiphase post-contrast imaging
H Chandarana, Invest Radiol (2011)
• “Stack of stars” volumetric technique: radial k-space acquisition in plane, Cartesian in slice direction
• Continuous imaging leads to dispersion of motion artifacts and view sharing
• Higher number of blades (>500) and narrower blade width compared with T2

Conclusions • MRI is an increasingly utilized in
young children with thoracoabdominal pathology
• Anesthetic medications for pediatric MRI should be reserved for cases that are medically indicated
• New acceleration and motion correction MR techniques allow free-breathing abdominal MRI in children and should decrease MR scan times and sedation requirements
