Musculoskeletal MRI at 3.0Â T and 7.0Â T: A comparison of relaxation times and image contrast

The T1 and T2 changes were within the expected ranges. Parameters for musculoskeletal protocols at 7.0 T can be optimized based on these values, yielding improved resolution in musculoskeletal imaging with similar contrast to that of standard 3.0 T clinical protocols.
