Background: High-resolution magnetic resonance imaging (hrMRI) can assess trabecular bone microarchitecture but the number of image slices required for reliable assessment is unclear.Methods: MRI was performed just below the growth plate of the proximal tibia from 20 healthy controls (all females; median age 21 years (range 18.35) and ten cases (3M:7F; median age 19.5 years (range 16.48) with known bone abnormalities including osteogenesis imperfecta and...
