The visualization of the pediatric skull and the assessment of sutures using a CT-like T1SGRE MR-sequence is feasible and comparable to other imaging modalities, and thus may help to reduce radiation exposure in pediatric patients. The technique may also be a promising imaging tool for other pathologies, such as fractures.
