Core Tip	Diagnosis of chronic inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is partially based on subsequent imaging. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the gastrointestinal tract (GIT) is established in adults for diagnosing IBD. In children and adolescents MRI is not routinely used up to now. This manuscript presents the commonly used magnetic resonance sequences for the evaluation of the GIT in children and adolescents. Techniques to obtain optimal bowel distension by oral intake or by using a nasally placed tube are described. Typical findings of intestinal and mesentery pathology in children suffering from IBD are shown.
