Abstract :
The research aim is to highlight the cartilage and bones against the background of the adjacent articular tissues in MRI imaging. For that the excitation parameters are calculated that allows minimization or signals suppressing from muscle tissue, synovial fluid and bone marrow with preservation of bone and cartilage response.
