Combining T1-weighted hepatobiliary MRCs to 3D/2D T2 MRC set improved accuracy for biliary anatomy diagnosis; time-efficient BH T1 MRC in axial and coronal planes should be considered as a key MRC sequence complementary to T2 MRCs. Given excellent biliary visualization and superior diagnostic confidence, Nav T1 MRC in selected subjects with breath-hold difficulties and inconclusive or complex biliary variations may assist in reaching a correct biliary diagnosis.
