Splanchnic, Thoracoabdominal, and Cerebral Blood Flow Volumes in Healthy Children and Young Adults in Fasting and Postprandial States: Determining Reference Ranges by Using Phase-Contrast MR Imaging

In this study, the authors have estimated reference ranges for blood flow volumes by using phase-contrast MR imaging in major splanchnic, thoracoabdominal, and neck vessels in healthy children and young adults that can be used provisionally as reference values for hemodynamic assessment in patients of this age group with various diseases.
