Controlled Clinical Trial
Pharmacokinetic MR analysis of the cartilage is influenced by field strength.
To study if the pharmacokinetic parameters derived from dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance (DCE-MR) images of the patellar cartilage are influenced by the main magnetic field strength. ⋯ Cartilage vascular permeability values are influenced by the MR field strength. This should be taken in consideration when analyzing this biomarker.

To evaluate the number and characteristics of papers on MR imaging written by radiologists in Spain and published in 2001-2007 Medline-indexed journals, including a comparison with the MR research output from German radiological departments. ⋯ Spanish radiologists published approximately two-third of their MR articles in several non-Spanish journals, while the official Spanish radiological journal Radiología leads the ranking of Spanish journals. Spanish radiologists are mainly active in the "neuroradiology" topic. The Spanish healthcare sector is the most active. German institutions published more in their official journal ROFO.
