To image myelin in brain more robustly on clinical scanners, we propose a Short TR Adiabatic Inversion Recovery prepared UTE (STAIR-UTE) sequence for volumetric myelin imaging in vivo. With STAIR technique, long T2 tissues with a broad range of T1s can be sufficiently suppressed. High myelin contrast can be robustly obtained with a TR less than 250 ms. The resultant myelin imaging shows a clear loss of myelin signal in multiple sclerosis (MS) lesions.
