MRI of the cartilage.

摘要: With the introduction of fat-suppressed gradient-echo and fast spin-echo (FSE) sequences in clinical routine MR visualization hyaline articular cartilage is routinely possible larger joints. While 3D with fat suppression allows exact depiction thickness surface cartilage, FSE outlines normal abnormal internal structures cartilage; therefore, both seem to be necessary a standard MRI protocol for visualization. In diagnostically ambiguous cases, which important therapeutic decisions are required, direct arthrography established imaging as an add-on procedure. Despite social impact prevalence, until recent years there was paucity knowledge about pathogenesis damage. high-resolution powerful coils fat-suppression techniques, now many After short summary anatomy physiology different methods discussed recommended standards suggested.
