Purpose: To compare the effects of deep learning reconstruction (DLR) on respiratory-triggered T2-weighted MRI of the liver between single-shot fast spin-echo (SSFSE) and fast spin-echo (FSE) sequences.

Methods: Respiratory-triggered fat-suppressed liver T2-weighted MRI was obtained with the FSE and SSFSE sequences at the same spatial resolution in 55 patients. Conventional reconstruction (CR) and DLR were applied to each sequence, and the SNR and liver-to-lesion contrast were measured on FSE-CR, FSE-DLR, SSFSE-CR, and SSFSE-DLR images.
