  2. Clinical case • Critically ill patient with severe streptococcus infektion and no improvement despite surgical resection of abscesses in right shoulder and left knee Further abscesses that need surgical treatment? • Wholebody scanning with X-tend table including postcontrast mDIXON water performed in 4 min total • Thigh/ankle station scanned without sense and TX, as refscans not possible (no extended keystroke for refscans and B1 calibration scans)

  3. STIR • Bright subcutaneous fat because of severe edema and not because of insufficient fat suppression

  4. T1-VISTA • 18 sec breathheld 3D isotropic 1.6 mm scans for bonemarrow evaluation

  5. mDIXON water postkontrast • Post contrast, appr 1.6mm isotropic • 18 sec pr station • Transversal stacks • Total scan time including moving the table etc: 4 min • Needs to be done within 5 min after contrast injection before contrast leaks through the synovia of the joints
