Pediatric patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) are at increased risk of gadolinium deposition given the potential need for multiple contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance enterography (MRE) exams over their lifetime. To determine whether gado

BACKGROUND: Parenteral nutrition (PN) provides nutrition intravenously; however, this life-saving therapy is associated with significant liver disease. Recent evidence indicates improvement in PN-associated injury in animals with intact gut treated w

Assessment of right ventricular (RV) function in patients with hypoplastic heart syndrome (HLHS) is essential, but echocardiographic assessment remains largely subjective and RV volume quantification by CMR is time consuming.
