Elastic modulus of cadaveric acetabular labrum correlates with ultrashort echo time (UTE) apparent spin-spin (T2*) and spin-lattice (T1) relaxation times. [PDF]
Introduction The acetabulum labrum plays a critical role in hip function. Medical imaging techniques for detecting labral degeneration may help improve our knowledge of its role in hip osteoarthritis (OA).

Using adiabatic inversion pulses for long‐T2 suppression in ultrashort echo time (UTE) imaging [PDF]
AbstractUltrashort echo time (UTE) imaging is a technique that can visualize tissues with sub‐millisecond T2 values that have little or no signal in conventional MRI techniques. The short‐T2 tissues, which include tendons, menisci, calcifications, and cortical bone, are often obscured by long‐T2 tissues.
