Volumetric fast spin echo (FSE) of the knee using T2 Shuffling (T2Sh) has previously been described as comparable to traditional 2D imaging. T2Sh has the added advantage of being a rapid single-scan 4D multi-plane reformattable sequence for pediatric knee examinations. This study investigates the feasibility and effectiveness of a targeted rapid pediatric knee MRI exam after introduction into clinical practice, with the goal of reducing cost and enabling same-day MRI access.
