Our study demonstrates the utility of multiband slice
accelerated TSE for improving slice resolution (2.5 mm
vs 3 mm) of clinical knee imaging at 3T with no time
penalty. Multiband slice acceleration improves the
acquisition efficiency of TSE, allowing more number of
thinner slices to be covered per TR.
