The authors describe the successful clinical implementation of an ultra-fast, T2-weighted, deep learning-enhanced MRI protocol tailored to pediatric patients, especially to those aged from 6 months* to 6 years. They provide a detailed overview of their workflow, with practical recommendations for patient preparation, positioning, and scan execution aimed at optimizing outcomes in both routine follow-ups and emergency pediatric imaging scenarios.
