This study was conducted to compare a three-dimensional (3D) multi-shot echo-planar imaging (EPI) sequence with fat-suppression (FS) with the 3D-fat-suppressed gradient echo (GRE-FS) sequence in imaging the cartilage of the knee. One hundred sixty-nine patients were studied prospectively. The cartil

## Abstract ## Purpose To compare three‐dimensional (3D) spatial‐spectral (SS) spoiled gradient‐recalled acquisition in the steady state (SPGR) imaging with fat‐suppressed 3D SPGR sequences in MR imaging of articular cartilage of the knee joint in patients with osteoarthritis. ## Materials and Me
## Abstract ## Purpose: To investigate the reversed intensity pattern in the laminar appearance of articular cartilage by 3D fat‐suppressed spoiled gradient recalled echo (FS‐SPGR) imaging in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). ## Materials and Methods: The 3D SPGR experiments were carried out on
