  High-resolution cartilage imaging of the knee at 3T: basic evaluation of modern isotropic 3D MR-sequences.

  To evaluate qualitative and quantitative image quality parameters of isotropic three-dimensional (3D) cartilage-imaging magnetic resonance (MR)-sequences at 3T. ⋯ Individually weighted DESS is the most promising candidate; all tested sequences performed better than FLASH.

  Comparative Study

  "One-stop-shop" staging: should we prefer FDG-PET/CT or MRI for the detection of bone metastases?

  The aim of this study was to compare the diagnostic accuracy of fully diagnostic, contrast-enhanced whole-body FDG-PET/CT and whole-body MRI for detection of bone metastases in patients suffering from newly diagnosed non-small cell lung cancer and malignant melanoma. ⋯ FDG-PET/CT and MRI seem to be equally suitable for the detection of skeletal metastases in patients suffering from newly diagnosed non-small cell lung cancer and malignant melanoma. Both modalities go along with a substantial rate of false-negative findings requiring a close follow-up of patients who are staged free of bone metastases at initial staging.
