Technical recommendations for renal DCE-MRI: Preliminary results from the consensus project of the ISMRM Renal MR study group
Motivation: Clinical translation of renal functional and quantitative MRI is hindered by a lack in standardisation of scan protocols. Goal(s): To develop expert consensus-based technical recommendations on the acquisition and post-processing of renal DCE-MRI. Approach: Experts were recruited and surveyed following the Delphi method to create consensus-based technical recommendations in renal DCE-MRI. Preliminary results will be used to construct the second survey round. Results: 16 experts responded to the preliminary survey. Consensus statements informed by the responses were drafted and will be circulated and refined in the next phase of the project. Impact: The insights obtained from this work will be invaluable in delivering recommendations that are comprehensive and widely accepted. Consensus-based technical recommendations for renal DCE-MRI aim to contribute to harmonisation of MRI scan protocols across sites, facilitating clinical translation.
