title: Fusion and subtraction post-processing in body MRI.
abstract: Interpreting complex paediatric body MRI studies requires the integration of information from multiple sequences. Image processing software, some freely available, allows the radiologist to use simple and rapid post-processing techniques that may aid diagnosis. We demonstrate the use of fusion and subtraction post-processing techniques with examples from four areas of application: enterography, oncological imaging, musculoskeletal imaging and MR fistulography.
