Exercise intervention has become increasingly recognized as an effective method in aiding the rehabilitation of pediatric diseases and promoting structural and functional improvements of the pediatric brain. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) technology offers a range of analytical methods to study brain changes in children and is widely applied in pediatric exercise intervention research. In this paper, we summarize the findings and methodologies of the existing pediatric exercise intervention research and discuss the impact of exercise interventions on the pediatric brain. Additionally, we analyze the potential causes for the lack of significant MRI differences in some experiments and propose corresponding solutions. This review highlights the application of MRI technology in pediatric exercise intervention research, underscores its importance and potential value, and provides a reference for future studies in this field.
