Key Points

This review aims to evaluate the effectiveness of ultra-short echo time (UTE) and zero echo time (ZTE) MRI sequences in musculoskeletal imaging.
Conducted a scoping review of existing literature on UTE and ZTE MRI sequences.
Focused on applications for evaluating fractures and cortical bone.
Analyzed patient experience, particularly regarding anxiety and comfort.
UTE and ZTE sequences enhance the evaluation of fractures and cortical bone.
Radiation-free imaging is achieved with these sequences, improving safety.
Reduced acoustic noise with ZTE sequences improves the MRI experience for anxious and vulnerable populations.

Abstract

UTE and ZTE sequences can be added to MSK MRI exams to improve fracture and cortical bone evaluation, allowing radiation-free imaging. ZTE's lower acoustic noise benefits anxious, paediatric, or dementia patients' MRI experience.
