Magnetic resonance imaging
provides superior soft-tissue detail compared to other imaging
modalities. The following MR images depict the left thoracic limb of
the horse. These images are proton-density weighted MR
images. Tissues that are high in proton content- such as fat- appear
white. Tissues that are low in proton content- such as mineral- appear
black. Therefore, coritcal bone
appears white, bone marrow appears white, fluid appears black, and dense connective tissue structures
such as tendons appear as dark grey. Click
