Synopsis

An MRI-safe device guiding knee motion/loading with a rotary encoder was used during MRI measurements of multiple knee flexion-extension cycles using radial gradient echo imaging with the golden-angle as a radial increment. Reproducibility of knee motion was investigated and anatomical CINE images were reconstructed for different knee angles by synchronizing the encoder data with the MRI data and selective gating, enabling evaluation of musculoskeletal conditions.
