这一版的磁共振成像主题包含6篇关于肌肉骨骼成像进展的文章。选择这些贡献是为了突出磁共振成像(MRI)的技术和临床进展,这些进展正在迅速出现在临床上作为常规实践。我们试图包括“热门话题”,如超短回波时间MRI,成像软骨生理学和三维成像。最后,也许也是最重要的,每一章都包含了非放射科物理学家和工程师的大量贡献,其中一些科学家推动了肌肉骨骼MRI的发展。例如,关于肌肉骨骼MRI新线圈的章节是由工程师和放射科医生合作撰写的,突出了线圈在图像质量方面的巨大差异。关于生物力学的章节主要是从机械工程师的角度出发,辅以MRI示例。简而言之,每一章都包含了在纯粹的放射学出版物中不常见的观点,沿着“该领域即将取得的进展是什么”的信息。贯穿本版的另一条主线是推动新临床应用的MRI物理和工程改进的概念,以及推动新MRI技术开发的临床需求。一方面,MRI现在可以很好地描述骨和关节疾病,为临床医生提供比过去更详细的诊断。这些细节有助于完善许多疾病的实际解剖学和临床知识。临床期望的增加又反馈到诊断成像,刺激了对更多细节、更多生物力学见解和更多生理学知识的需求。肌肉骨骼MRI仍然是一个令人兴奋的,充满活力的,先进的领域,将成像物理学与肌肉骨骼疾病的临床和外科方面相结合。
This edition of Topics in Magnetic Resonance Imaging contains 6 articles on advances in muscu-loskeletal imaging. The contributions were chosen to highlight the technical and clinical advances in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) that are rapidly appearing in the clinic as routine practice. We sought to include ‘‘hot topics’’such as ultrashort echo time MRI, imaging cartilage physiology, and 3-dimensional imaging. Finally, and perhaps most importantly, each of the chapters incorporates substantial contributions from nonradiologist physicists and engineers, some of the many scientists driving the advancement of musculoskeletal MRI. For example, the chapter on new coils for musculoskeletal MRI was written by a collaboration of engineers and radiologists, highlighting the way coils make a big difference in image quality. The chapter on biomechanics is primarily from the viewpoint of a mechanical engineer, supplemented by MRI examples. In short, each of the chapters contains perspectives not often found in purely radiological publications, information along the lines of ‘‘what are the coming advances in the field.’’One other thread that runs through this edition is the concept of improvements in physics and engineering of MRI that drive new clinical applications as well as the clinical needs that drive development of new MRI techniques. On one hand, MRI now permits excellent depiction of bone and joint disorders, giving clinicians much more detailed diagnoses than in the past. These details have helped refine practical anatomical and clinical knowledge of many of the disorders. Increased clinical expectations then feed back to diagnostic imaging, stimulating an appetite for more detail, more biomechanical insight, and more knowledge of physiology. Musculoskeletal MRI remains an exciting, vibrant, and advancing field integrating imaging physics with clinical and surgical aspects of musculoskeletal disorders.
