Question Can deep learning-based reconstruction elevate motion-robust single-shot T2-weighted pediatric brain MRI to diagnostic image quality levels, enabling reliable imaging without sedation? Findings Both quantitative and qualitative evaluations confirmed significantly improved image quality of deep learning-enhanced single-shot T2-weighted brain MRI compared with conventional reconstruction. Clinical relevance Deep learning-enhanced reconstruction improves image quality in ultrafast, motion-robust single-shot pediatric brain MRI, potentially reducing the need for sedation while preserving diagnostic accuracy. This approach may enhance patient safety and shorten examination time in routine neuroimaging.
