The 10-minute abdominal MRI scan: Can it become reality?

By Frances Rylands-Monk

While MRI is sensitive and specific for liver imaging, the time required for a thorough exam often means that radiologists opt for CT due to quicker results and fewer artifacts. But what if the usual 30-minute MRI could be reduced to 10 minutes? Would that sway doctors to send patients for an MRI more often? Experts at today's session on making the 10-minute MRI exam a reality believe that it would.
