We used free breathing Dixon vibe protocol on a Siemens
3T Skyra scanner to study abdominal fat and MRS to study
liver fat of 7-9 year old children born from mothers
with gestational diabetes. We obtained clear and
processable images and spectra. Intra-abdominal fat
percentage showed good correlation with liver MRS. Total
abdominal fat determined by MRI showed good correlation
with DEXA scan. Free breathing protocols are suitable to
study children.
