Figure 2From: High resolution MRI imaging at 9.4 Tesla of the osteochondral unit in a translational model of articular cartilage repairOverview of image quality obtained using μMRI at 9.4 T. Example of good (a) and poor (b) noise-to-signal ratio (NSR) and consequentially limited informative value. Axial reconstruction of same sample and identical plane. The SNR detoriated continuously when several consecutive scans were performed. SGE sequence, isotropic voxel size 120 μm3. Scale bar = 4 mm.Back to article page
