Research Article: Zero echo time MRI improved detection of erosions and sclerosis in the sacroiliac joint in comparison with LAVA-flex
Abstract:
Background: T1-weighted spoiled 3D Gradient Recalled Echo pulse sequences, exemplified by Liver Acquisition with Volume Acceleration-flexible MRI (LAVA-Flex), are currently the preferred MR sequence for detecting erosions of the sacroiliac joint (SIJ). However, zero echo time MRI (ZTE) is recently reported to provide excellent visualization of the cortical bone.
