Dynamic magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of gastrointestinal motility has developed rapidly over the past few years. The non-invasive and non-ionizing character of MRI is an important advantage together with the fact that it is fast and can visualize the entire gastrointestinal tract. Advances in imaging and quantification techniques have facilitated assessment of gastric, small intestinal, and colonic motility in a clinical setting. Dynamic MRI is used in the stomach to measure frequency and amplitude of antral contractions. [3][4][5] It is used for the small bowel to look at segmental and global motility using frequency measures and surrogate measures. [6][7][8][9][10][11][12] In the colon it has been applied to assess motion and velocity of contents, wall motion and to study motility using surrogate measures. 13-17 So far there has been a paucity of validation studies. To our knowledge there is only one study in which dynamic MRI findings were compared to manometry, demonstrating 100% correlation between visualized colonic movements and intraluminal pressure changes. 17 The clinical value of dynamic MRI is under evaluation for pathologies like inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), chronic intestinal pseudo-obstruction (CIPO) and constipation. they quantified small bowel motility using dynamic MRI. 18 In this review we discuss the challenges and opportunities in evaluating gastrointestinal motility with dynamic MRI. The first part of this review summarizes the technical aspects of the dynamic MRI technique; the second part discusses the observations made by applying the described
