Abstract:Background: Three‐dimensional gradient‐echo (3D‐GRE) sequences provide isotropic or nearly isotropic 3D images, leading to better visualization of smaller structures, compared to two‐dimensional (2D) sequences. The aim of this study was to prospectively compare 2D and 3D‐GRE sequences in terms of key imaging metrics, including signal‐to‐noise ratio (SNR), contrast‐to‐noise ratio (CNR), glenohumeral joint space, image quality, artifacts, and acquisition time in shoulder joint images, using 1.5‐T MRI scanner.Met… Show more
