Overview: A central modality for the assessment of musculoskeletal disorders is MRI.  While many centers continue to utilize conventional sequences (T1/intermediate-weighted, fluid-sensitive fat suppressed T2 or STIR, static post-contrast T1-weighted imaging) for routine musculoskeletal imaging, there are several advances that can be incorporated into clinical MR imaging of the musculoskeletal system, such as to the practice of sports imaging, articular cartilage and osteoarthritis assessment, and to musculoskeletal oncology. This course will review advancements in MRI protocols for such clinical applications.
