Motion Artifact ScoresPrimary· During MRI, up to 60 minutes
Three investigators will independently evaluate MRI examinations. They will assign motion scores between respiratory triggered and corresponding breath hold acquisitions. 1 = no motion artifact; 2 = minimal motion artifact, no effect on diagnostic quality; 3 = moderate motion artifact with some, but not severe, effect on diagnostic quality; 4 = severe motion artifact, images degraded but interpretable; and 5 = extensive motion artifact, images nondiagnostic.

Sponsor's own description
The purpose of this study is to evaluate a single breath hold abdominal MRI protocol and compare the image quality of respiratory triggered 3D T1-weighted images against conventional breath hold images.
