✦ Synopsis

We report a simple and efficient MR method for the evaluation of trabecular bone quality. This technique is based on detection and imaging of Multiple Spin-Echoes (MSE), a manifestation of the dipolar field generated by residual intermolecular dipolar couplings in liquids. In the particular implementation we have used, originally proposed by Bowtell [

## Abstract Mechanical strength and fracture resistance of trabecular bone (TB) are largely determined by the structural arrangement of individual trabeculae. Fast 3D spin‐echo approaches are preferable to gradient echoes in that they are less sensitive to local induced gradients at the bone/marrow

The magnetic field induced in the pores of trabecular bone as a result of the susceptibility difference between bone and bone marrow was computed with the aid of magnetic surface charge models generated from images of trabecular bone specimens acquired at 78 and 63 m resolution. The predicted field
