Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
<p>Objective and subjective image quality of Bone MRI will be investigated.<br /><br>Geometrical accuracy and voxelwise similarity will be assessed to evaluate<br /><br>objective image quality and will be leading in the acceptance of Bone MRI<br /><br>images. </p><br>
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
<p>Subjective image scores is our secondary outcome measure. Bone MRI scans will<br /><br>be assessed by two radiologists and one neurosurgeon and should reach a score<br /><br>of 3 or higher (scale 1-4) in 80% in order to be qualified as acceptable, in<br /><br>the rating of predetermined anatomical structures.</p><br>
