With the #ISMRM Workshop on #MSK #MRI taking place in Boston, I'd like to highlight “High-Resolution Imaging of the Hip Joint in the Age of Deep Learning” by Ji Lin, MD; et al. (Hospital for Special Surgery, New York, USA).

MRI has proven to be an invaluable resource in the diagnosis and management of orthopedic conditions, given its superior soft tissue contrast, lack of ionizing radiation, and ability to obtain high-resolution imaging. In the face of declining reimbursement and increasing pressure for patient throughput, efforts are ongoing to decrease scan times while maintaining image quality and resolution. 
This is especially important when patients are unable to tolerate prolonged scan times due to claustrophobia or pain. In these instances, faster scan times may be particularly valuable for patient care.
MRI of the hip is one of the most frequently performed MR examinations at imaging centers specializing in orthopedic imaging. The relatively thin cartilage of the hip requires high in-plane and through-plane (slice) resolution to maintain diagnostic accuracy, which results in longer scan times.
The authors outline a 3T protocol that uses deep learning reconstruction, reduced echo spacing, and reduced specific absorption rate (SAR) with optimization of radiofrequency (RF) pulses to enable a hip MRI protocol within 15 minutes of scan time but still maintains spatial resolution and SNR.

One Sequence, Multiple Contrasts: Toward a Simplified Knee #MRI Protocol with 3D PD TSE nDixon by Dr Romain Gillet, et al. (Service d’Imagerie Guilloz, Hôpital Central, CHRU Nancy, France).

#RadSky #MSK #KneeMRI #MusculoskeletalRadiology

The 3D PD TSE nDixon sequence is acquired in under six minutes and combines three complementary technologies: 
-	isotropic 3D proton-density turbo spin-echo imaging,  
-	Dixon fat–water separation, and 
-	deep-learning-based image reconstruction.

Unlike conventional 3D fat-suppressed TSE sequences that rely on spectral attenuated inversion recovery (SPAIR), Dixon-based reconstruction performs intrinsic fat–water separation and is considerably less sensitive to B0 field inhomogeneities. This advantage is particularly relevant in peripheral musculoskeletal imaging, where complex anatomy and off-center positioning frequently compromise conventional fat suppression.

From a single acquisition, Dixon reconstruction simultaneously provides water-only images comparable to conventional PD fat-suppressed imaging together with fat-only, in-phase, and opposed-phase reconstructions. 

Multiple clinically useful image contrasts are therefore generated without increasing acquisition time.
The availability of fat-only images is particularly valuable because they reproduce much of the information traditionally obtained from a dedicated T1-weighted sequence. Bone marrow composition, fatty replacement, marrow reconversion, incidental marrow lesions, fractures, and many bone abnormalities can therefore be evaluated without requiring an additional acquisition. 
Together, isotropic imaging and Dixon reconstruction create the possibility of performing a comprehensive routine knee examination using a single volumetric acquisition.

Key benefits of 3D PD TSE nDixon
• One acquisition, four image contrasts 
• Potential replacement of dedicated T1 imaging 
• ~ 50% shorter examination time 
• Isotropic multiplanar reformations 
• Robust Dixon fat suppression 
• Deep-learning reconstruction 
• Motion-resistant workflow 
• Potential extension to hand, wrist, ankle, and foot imaging


WIP. Please note that 3D PD TSE nDixon is Work in Progress.

🦴🧲 Radial UTE #MRI in Musculoskeletal Diseases by Dr. Yun Sun Choi, et al. (Nowon Eulji Medical Center, Eulji University, Seoul, Korea)

marketing.webassets.siemens-healthineers.com/9bc0da7a4dcc...

#RadSky #MSK #BoneImaging

MRI is the modality of choice for evaluating most soft-tissue structures in the musculoskeletal system because of its excellent soft-tissue contrast and lack of ionizing radiation. However, conventional MRI sequences typically use echo times longer than one millisecond and therefore fail to capture signal from tissues with ultrashort transverse relaxation times, such as cortical bone, calcified cartilage, fibrocartilage, the deep or enthesial portions of tendons and ligaments, and cartilaginous endplate at the discovertebral junction.
 
Because these short-T2 tissues are frequently involved in musculoskeletal disease, conventional MRI leaves a diagnostic gap that has traditionally been addressed by radiography or CT. 3D radial ultrashort echo time (UTE)* MRI helps bridge this gap by sampling the free induction decay within tens of microseconds after nonselective excitation, using a center-out radial k-space trajectory. This technique enables visualization of tissues that are normally signal-void on conventional MRI, and can provide CT-like contrast for cortical bone and mineralized tissue while preserving the soft-tissue advantages of MRI. 

UTE MRI can complement standard MRI in the evaluation of bone morphology, fractures, focal bone lesions, joint disease, soft-tissue calcification or ossification, and postoperative changes. At present, radial UTE MRI is best regarded as a powerful adjunct to, rather than a replacement for, CT or conventional MRI. Its clinical role is partially limited by longer acquisition times, sequence-specific artifacts, the magic-angle effect, and lower spatial resolution compared with CT. Nevertheless, continuing advances in acquisition and reconstruction are likely to expand the role of radial UTE MRI in comprehensive, radiation-free musculoskeletal imaging.
