Scientific Abstract
Chemical Exchange Saturation Transfer (CEST) MRI at 7T can provide high-quality metabolic maps for research in knee osteoarthritis, with a potential to replace the biopsy. Heterogeneity of the main magnetic field and constraints of the Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) make the fat suppression and the metabolite quantification challenging. This project aims to implement a routine for dynamic fat suppression pulse calculation including fields inhomogeneities and SAR limits specific to the subject.
