Sweep Imaging with Fourier Transform (SWIFT) imaging at 14 T shows short T2 bone matrix structure in an antigen-induced arthritis (AIA) model in rat. This technique is compared to gradient echo where bone structures appear dark. We explore the advantages SWIFT to assess bone matrix and erosion in the first feasibility study for small rodent joints at 14 T.
