[Functional MR urography in children]

Abstract : MR Urography (MRU) provides both morphologic and functional information without radiation exposure. It enables the assessment of split renal function, excretion, and quantification of obstruction. MRU is thus complementary to ultrasonography in the assessment of pre- and post-natal obstructive uropathies in children. If available, MRU should be definitely preferred to intravenous urography.
