MR urography in children.

Thanks to the development of rapid sequences with better resolution, applications of uro MR have rapidly increased in children. Difficulties that remain are related to the variable ages of the patients. It is therefore mandatory to standardize as much as possible the techniques that are used in order to obtain reproducible results. In this review, the examination protocols will be explained. In a second part the current applications in children will be illustrated and discussed, especially in comparison with the other imaging techniques.
