• With the greater demand, the radiologist should be familiar with the proper technique, applications, and imaging features of MR enterography. • MR provides improved tissue contrast, greater transmural and extramural detail, and function information, facilitating diagnosis of non-inflammatory small bowel disease.  

Imaging modalities available for the evaluation of small bowel disease Rationale for the use of MR enterography for evaluation of noninflammatory bowel disease Lack of ionizing radiation Improved tissue contrast Visualization of the entire bowel Greater endoluminal, mural, and extramural enteric detail Functional information  MR enterography technique Non-inflammatory bowel indications for MRE Cases Normal MR enterography findings Small bowel neoplasms  Carcinoid of the small bowel Polypoid jejunal hamartoma Jejunal adenocarcinoma GI stromal tumors Peritoneal and serosal implants in endometrial cancer Crohn’s disease with concurrent lymphoma Familial adenomatous polyposis status post total colectomy  Diffuse non-inflammatory disease of the small bowel Congenital lymphangiectasia Sickle cell disease status post bone marrow transplant Acute abdomen   Pitfalls and limitations Summary
