Summary

In a preliminary MRI study of healthy volunteers's hands investigators showed that the suppression of the fat signal obtained by the Dixon sequences is greater than that obtained by the "classic" CHESS sequences with a better T1-weighted image quality. The investigators goal now is to compare these sequences in the quantification of the inflammatory activity of rheumatoid arthritis by the RAMRIS score. To investigators knowledge, only one study compared those two types of sequence with many limitations including a limited number of patients included.
