We evaluated muscle/fat fraction (MFF) accuracy and reliability measured with an MR imaging technique at 1.5 Tesla (T) and 3.0 T scanner strengths, using biopsy as reference. MRI was performed on muscle samples from pig and rabbit species (n = 8) at 1.5 T and 3.0 T. A chemical shift based 2-point Dixon method was used, collecting in-phase and out-of-phase data for fat/water of muscle samples. Values were compared to MFFs calculated from histology. No significant difference was found between 1.5 and 3.0 T (P values = 0.41 – 0.96), or between histology and imaging (P = 0.83) for any muscle tested. Results suggest that a 2-point Dixon fat/water separation MRI technique may provide reliable quantification of MFFs at varying field strengths across different animal species, and consistency was established with biopsy. The results set a foundation for larger scale investigation of quantifying muscle-fat in neuromuscular disorders.
