## Abstract T~1ρ~ describes the spin‐lattice relaxation in the rotating frame and has been proposed for detecting damage to the cartilage collagen‐proteoglycan matrix in osteoarthritis. In this study, a multi‐slice T~1ρ~ imaging method for knee cartilage was developed using spin‐lock techniques and
## Abstract ## Purpose To demonstrate the feasibility of three‐dimensional (3D) T~1ρ~‐weighted imaging of human knee joint at 3.0T without exceeding the specific absorption rate (SAR) limits and the measurement of the baseline T~1ρ~ values of patellar cartilage and several muscles at the knee join
## Abstract Three‐dimensional spin‐lattice relaxation time in the rotating frame (3D‐T~1ρ~) with parallel imaging at 3.0T was implemented on a whole‐body clinical scanner. A 3D gradient‐echo sequence with a self‐compensating spin‐lock pulse cluster was combined with generalized autocalibrating part
## Abstract A sequence for the acquisition of high‐resolution __T__~1~ maps, based on magnetization‐prepared multislice fast low‐angle shot (FLASH) imaging, is presented. In contrast to similar methods, no saturation pulses are used, resulting in an increased dynamic range of the relaxation process
