“…[1][2][3][4][5][6][7] Evaluation of the elbow joint articular cartilage with MRA remains challenging, with a sensitivity of about 80% for the detection of all cartilage defects, although it is ,50% for superficial defects. 8 Improving the visibility of the articular cartilage is the first step to a more accurate evaluation of an articular cartilage injury, which will in turn improve patient management.…”

“…In a study done by B. R. Mohan et.al 46 in 2007 showed an accuracy similar to most of the MRI studies on meniscal tears and concluded that physical examination is a useful and important diagnostic technique and is as reliable as MRI to diagnose meniscal tears and recommend the use of MRI for more doubtful, difficult and complex knee injuries.…”

“…The articular cartilage of the knee, the glenoid labrum of the shoulder, the triangular fibrocartilage of the wrist (Fig. 1) and the labrum and cartilage of the coxofemoral joint make up the optimal field of application for MR imaging at 3 T, with greater diagnostic confidence that translates into better patient management [14,15].…”

The increasing distribution of high-field (3 T) magnetic resonance (MR) systems for clinical use has been accompanied by the need to fully understand the advantages and disadvantages that the increase in signal quality confers. Continuous development of the coils is required to fully express the potential of these systems, especially given the synergy between parallel imaging and the recent multichannel phased-array coils, which are able to improve image quality, spatial resolution and diagnostic accuracy in musculoskeletal imaging. The increase in signal offered by the high field makes possible improved visualisation of bone, cartilage, tendons and ligaments. This advantage, together with increased spatial resolution, is particularly useful when studying joints or some of their components, the evaluation of which has produced suboptimal results in non arthrographic examinations such as the glenoid labrum of the shoulder and the articular cartilage of the knee. Thanks to the greater signal-to-noise ratio and improved spatial resolution, MR imaging at 3 T is able to notably increase diagnostic performance in the musculoskeletal setting, with a consequent improvement in patient treatment and management.
