μMRI

micromagnetic resonance imaging(English)

  • at the microscopic level, i.e., if the spatial resolution of the acquired images is better than 100μm, bone architectural assessment is predominantly associated with trabecular structure, i.e., the interconnecting lattice of bone tissue filled with marrow. Typical parameters are trabecular thickness and separation of trabeculae and parameters comprehensively describing the network architecture, such as the structure model index (SMI). Macroimaging of bone architecture employs x-ray-based imaging modalities either using planar methods such as conventional radiography and dual x-ray absorptiometry (DXA), or volumetric methods such as quantitative computed tomography (QCT). Methods of microimaging are: three-dimensional (3D) microcomputed tomography (μCT) and three-dimensional micromagnetic resonance imaging (μMRI)
