In Vivo Sodium Imaging of Human Patellar Cartilage with a 3D Cones Sequence at 3 T and 7 T

PURPOSE: To compare signal-to-noise ratios (SNR) and T(2)* maps at 3T and 7T using 3D cones from in vivo sodium images of the human knee. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Sodium concentration has been shown to correlate with glycosaminoglycan content of cartilage and is a possible biomarker of osteoarthritis....
