Key result
The PROPELLER MRI technique minimized motion artifacts and improved delineation of anatomic structures compared to traditional T2-weighted TSE sequences in 36 patients.
Why the study?
The study was conducted to analyze conventional T2 sequences versus the PROPELLER technique for artifact reduction, image quality improvement, and identifying signs of pathology on shoulder MRI.
Does the PROPELLER technique improve image quality and reduce artifacts compared to conventional T2 TSE sequences in patients undergoing shoulder MRI?
Observational (n=36)
Does the PROPELLER technique improve image quality and reduce artifacts compared to conventional T2 TSE sequences in patients undergoing shoulder MRI?
The PROPELLER technique enhances image quality and reduces motion artifacts compared to traditional TSE sequences in shoulder MRI.

PROPELLER may reduce motion artifacts in shoulder MRI for pain-intolerant patients; leaves open diagnostic impact in larger prospective studies.
Objective: The purpose of the study is to analyze the uses of conventional T2 sequences and PROPELLER technique in view of artifact reduction, increase the image quality and identify signs of pathology on shoulder magnetic resonance imaging. A total number of 36 Materials and Method: patients who underwent shoulder MRI with pain intolerance were included in the study. We used PROPELLER and without PROPELLER technology in the same participants. The MRI scans were evaluated separately by qualied musculoskeletal radiologists. Artifacts, overall image quality, and delineation of several anatomic structures were all investigated in relation to the diagnostic value of an MR arthrography examination. The signicance of propeller was analyzed by implementing Mann Whitney U test. The TSE sequences had worse pulsation artifacts and Results: better overall image quality than PROPELLER sequences. In both Coronal Oblique and Sagittal Oblique approach, delineation of all addressed anatomic structures was much better with PROPELLER sequences than with TSE. The PROPELLER approach for MRI of the Conclusion: shoulder minimizes the frequency of sequences with diagnostic impairment owing to motion artifacts and enhances picture quality when compared to traditional TSE sequences.

Sathynarayanan et al. (2023) conducted an observational in Rotator cuff injuries / shoulder pain (n=36). PROPELLER MRI technique vs. T2 weighted Turbo Spin Echo (TSE) sequence was evaluated on Artifacts, overall image quality, and delineation of anatomic structures. The PROPELLER MRI technique minimized motion artifacts and improved delineation of anatomic structures compared to traditional T2-weighted TSE sequences in 36 patients.
