Aim To validate a newly developed software prototype that automatically analyses small
bowel motility by comparing it directly with manual measurement. Material and methods …

Objective: Analysis of “cine” MRI using segmental regions of interest (ROIs) has become
increasingly popular for investigating bowel motility; however, variation in motility in healthy …

Purpose To study the feasibility and to gauge the potential clinical impact of quantifying
small bowel motility using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in a larger population with a …

Objective: Dynamic imaging of small intestinal motility is an increasingly common research
method to examine bowel physiology in health and disease. However, limited data exist to …

Objective Cine magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has emerged as a noninvasive method
to quantitatively assess bowel motility. However, its accuracy in measuring various degrees …

Increasingly, dynamic magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has potential as a noninvasive
and accessible tool for diagnosing and monitoring gastrointestinal motility in healthy and …

Purpose To assess the repeatability in human volunteers of software-quantified small bowel
motility captured with magnetic resonance (MR) imaging and to test the ability to detect …

BACKGROUND: The mechanics of small bowel motility are extremely complex. Routine
clinical access to small bowel has been restricted to radiological enteric contrast studies …

Purpose: To evaluate the use of cine‐magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) with a steady‐
state free precession sequence to monitor and assess small bowel motility. Materials and …

Purpose Contraction frequencies are an important parameter for the analysis of bowel
motility in MRI. The contraction curve can be rather noisy and the frequency‐evaluation …
