The effects of altered receiver bandwidth and magnetic field strength on distortion artifact for a 32 year old male with anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction and a titanium interference screw in the femoral tunnel. White dashed lines indicate region of magnified inset. Image distortion is greatly amplified when acquiring images at a higher field strength (3T) and with a low receiver bandwidth (±31.25 kHz). Imaging at a lower field strength (1.5T) reduces susceptibility artifact, as does scanning with a higher receiver bandwidth (±83.3 kHz).
