Keywords: Cartilage, Relaxometry, MeniscusThe aim of this study was to evaluate the in vivo scan-rescan repeatability of T2 and T1ρ quantification in knee cartilage and meniscus of patients with knee pain at 7 Tesla. Four subjects were scanned-rescanned on the same day using the 10-minutes-long MAPSS sequence for simultaneous T2 and T1ρ mapping. Coefficients of variation and Bland-Altman plots showed excellent scan-rescan repeatability of in vivo T2 and T1ρ quantification in cartilage and meniscus at 7 Tesla. Our results indicate that fast T2 and T1ρ mapping with four echo and four spin-lock times remains sensitive to cartilage degeneration.
