MR urography (MRU) is an emerging technique particularly useful in paediatric uroradiology. The most common indication is the investigation of hydronephrosis. Combined static and dynamic contrast-enhanced MRU (DCE-MRU) provides both morphological and functional information in a single examination. However, specific post-processing must be performed and to our knowledge, dedicated software is not available in conventional workstations. Investigators involved in MRU classically use homemade software that is not freely accessible. For these reasons, we have developed a software program that is freely downloadable on the National Institute of Health (NIH) website. We report and describe in this study the features of this software program.
