Sažetak

With its multiplanar capabilities and excellent soft-tissue contrast, magnetic resonance imaging has established itself as the leading modality for non-invasive evaluation of the musculoskeletal system. Most clinical evaluation are performed at the field strength 1.5T due to a less availability of 3T MRI machines. Although at first used primarily for neurological imaging, an increasing number of studies have demonstrated the abilities and advantages of 3T MR systems in musculoskeletal imaging. The most notable advantage includes an increased signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) which can lead to a shorter imaging time and reduces the chance of motion artefacts or improved image resolution.Much promising research is being done in how to optimize the 3T MRI protocol to achieve the best possible evaluation of the musculoskeletal system.
