MR-Enterography: Technical Aspects and Clinical Applications is a comprehensive guide that explores the use of MR-Enterography as an imaging modality for assessing intestinal conditions in patients with inflammatory bowel diseases. Written by renowned experts in the field, this second edition delves into the latest advancements in MR-Enterography and provides valuable insights into its practical applications and clinical implications.

Over the past few years, MR-Enterography has gained increasing consensus among healthcare professionals due to its reliability and advantages over other imaging techniques. This non-invasive procedure allows for an exhaustive evaluation of the abdominal cavity without exposing patients to harmful radiation. As such, it has become an indispensable tool in diagnosing and monitoring inflammatory bowel diseases like Crohn’s disease.

The first part of the book focuses on the standard protocol for performing MR-Enterography. In addition to the standard protocol, the authors also discuss additional sequences, technical novelties, and common pitfalls that may arise during the procedure. This comprehensive coverage ensures that readers gain a thorough understanding of the technique and are well-prepared to perform MR-Enterography in their clinical practice.

In the second section, the book explores the typical intestinal and extra-intestinal findings associated with Crohn’s disease. The authors provide detailed descriptions and illustrations of these findings, emphasizing practical topics that are relevant to daily clinical practice. This includes anatomical changes after surgical procedures, the importance of structured reporting, and emerging clinical applications in the field of inflammatory bowel diseases.

Another important aspect covered in the book is Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) of the anal canal. The authors delve into the technical aspects of performing MRI of the anal canal and discuss its clinical implications, particularly in relation to the diagnosis and management of various conditions affecting this anatomical region.

The text is complemented by numerous diagnostic images and illustrations, which enhance the reader’s understanding of the concepts discussed. Additionally, the book includes 30 illustrated cases that showcase different clinical scenarios evaluated with MR-Enterography and MRI of the anal canal. These cases serve as valuable learning tools and help readers apply their knowledge in real-life situations.

MR-Enterography: Technical Aspects and Clinical Applications is an invaluable resource for radiologists, gastroenterologists, and other healthcare professionals involved in the diagnosis and management of inflammatory bowel diseases. Its comprehensive coverage, practical approach, and emphasis on emerging clinical applications make it an essential reference for both experienced practitioners and those new to MR-Enterography.
