  Figure 470-07-124.  Can ZTE Bone MRI Replace CT for Scaphoid Surgical Planning? A CT-Referenced Bland–Altman Study in 31 Healthy Wrists
Yukiko Michishita, Saya Horiuchi, Shigekazu Funada, Tsuneo Yamashiro
St. Luke's International University, Tokyo, Japan
Impact: Using 31 healthy wrists, ZTE bone MRI reproduced CT scaphoid measurements with tight Bland–Altman limits and high correlations, outperforming 3D T1 GRE for length precision. MRI-only planning may reduce radiation and consolidate bone-and-soft-tissue assessment in routine clinical practice.
  Figure 470-07-125.  Comparison of 3D UTE MRI Using PR, Cones, and Rosette Trajectories
Michael Carl, Xin Shen, Yankai Meng, Yajun Ma, Jiang Du
GE HealthCare, San Ramon, United States of America
Impact: Using in-vivo MR imaging of the knee we investigate the tradeoffs in terms of scan-time and image quality (artifact and SNR) between UTE-type sequences using PR, Cones, and Rosette trajectories.
  Figure 470-07-126.  Evaluation of Deep Learning Enhancement for Zero Echo Time MRI of the Shoulder
Daehyun Yoon, Kevin McGill, Alexandra Gersing, Sagar Mandava, Michael Carl, Quin Lu, Thomas Link
University of California San Francisco, San Francisco, United States of America
Impact: Deep learning-based image reconstruction enhances image quality, anatomy visualization, pathological abnormality assessment, overall diagnostic confidence, and the clinical impact of ZTE sequences for shoulder MR Imaging.
  Figure 470-07-127.  Sex Differences in Achilles Tendon Microstructure in Older Runners Assessed by Dual-Echo UTE-T2* Bi-Component Analysis
Baisheng Fu, Yuhang Nie, Junjie Fang, Stefan Sommer, Yunzhu Wu, Xini Zhang
Ningbo University, Ningbo, China
Impact: This study compared region-specific Achilles tendon differences between older male and female runners, indicated UTE-T2* imaging as a sensitive method for detecting early degeneration and guiding personalized rehabilitation in aging athletes.
  Figure 470-07-128.  CT like Cervical MRI Using 3D Multi echo GRE with FAST3D Wheel and denoising deep-learning reconstruction
Jae-Kyun Ryu, Hei-Jung Jang, Chuluunbaatar Otgonbaatar, Hyunkeun Jeong, Hackjoon Shim, Jin Woo Kim, Hyunjung Kim
Canon Medical Systems Korea, Seoul, Korea, Republic of
Impact: FAST3D‑accelerated, denoising deep learning reconstruction 3D multi‑echo GRE enables faster CT‑like cervical MRI without degrading SNR or sharpness, supporting reliable evaluation of calcifications in routine time slots and motivating patient studies and reader‑performance validation.
  Figure 470-07-129.  Linking Body Weight and Spinal Biological Aging: A Deep Learning–Derived MRI Aging Biomarker for Spine Health Assessment.
Roozbeh Bazargani, Saqib Basar, Mahya Mobinikhaledi, Sadiya Hussain Chatham Parayil, Rodrigo Solis Pompa, Javad Khaghani, Ahmed Gouda, Daniel Daly-Grafstein, Duc Nguyen, Saurabh Garg, Siavash Khallaghi, Yuntong Ma, Sam Hashemi
Prenuvo, Inc, San Francisco, United States of America
Impact: We introduce a novel MRI-derived biomarker of spinal biological aging that reflects how body mass index (BMI) influences spine health. This approach offers personalized evaluation of spinal aging and the detection of individuals susceptible to accelerated degeneration.
  Figure 470-07-130.  MSU Classification of L5/S1 Disc Herniation Correlates with Quantitative MRI of Paraspinal Muscles and Sagittal Balance
Zilu Huang, Junrong Chen, Huilou Liang
Chengdu Sport University, Chengdu, China
Impact: Quantitative MRI and sagittal balance parameters jointly reflect biomechanical alterations associated with L5/S1 disc herniation severity. Integrating these imaging markers into clinical decision-making may guide targeted muscle strengthening and postural correction, improving therapeutic outcomes and reducing recurrence.
  Figure 470-07-131.  Assessment of Postural Influence on Whole-Spine Curvature Using Automatic Image Stitching and a Rotating 1.5T Cryogen-Free MR
shiying ke, Hengyuan Guo, Yulin Wang, Jichang Zhang, Jianjun Zheng, Bin Chen, Thomas Meersmann, Chengbo Wang
University of Nottingham Ningbo China, Ningbo, Zhejiang, China
Impact: These findings demonstrate that integrating automated stitching, segmentation, and Cobb angle analysis provides a radiation-free, reproducible diagnostic approach, potentially advancing early detection and continuous monitoring of AIS(Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis).
