    The Quiescent Interval Slice Selective (QISS) method enhances non-contrast magnetic resonance angiography for vascular imaging.

  • 2

    QISS captures fresh arterial blood flow during the diastolic phase, minimizing interference from surrounding tissues.

  • 3

    The study measured pulmonary artery dimensions in pediatric patients using radial QISS to establish reference values.

  • 4

    Exclusion criteria for the study included congenital heart disease and other conditions affecting pulmonary artery size.

  • 5

    Statistical analyses were performed using R software, focusing on the influence of sex, age, and body surface area on outcomes.
