Diagnosis and treatment monitoring of musculoskeletal defects require high-quality noninvasive imaging of dynamic phenomena in vivo. Real-time MRI is an emerging potential imaging strategy to achieve such a goal, thanks to recent advancements in parallel imaging. The current study demonstrate that real-time MRI with very low-latency display can be utilized to capture fast musculoskeletal motion on the knee joint. Specifically, radial GRAPPA with high degrees of undersampling (R=12) was applied and a reconstruction framework designed for low-latency display to observe free motion of the knee joint.
