Fast model-based T2 mapping using SAR-reduced simultaneous multislice excitation.

abstract：:Saline solutions of manganese ions (Mn2+) were used as articular contrast agents in magnetic resonance microscopy (9.4 T) of cartilage of chicken femoral condyles and pig temporomandibular joints. The diffusion of Mn2+ from the articular surface into the cartilage matrix led to a strong contrast enhancement in the car...
