Got barbecue?

Can anyone hazard a guess as to what I'm imaging here? Looks tasty, actually....
Well, this is a MRI image of a cow knee (200X150 mm2 FOV, driven equilibrium FT sequence, 256X256 matrix). Our sample came from a reputable source (the butcher shop across the street from the hospita- wait a minute, on second thought, maybe I should quit getting my meat there...). Not the strangest thing I ever saw across from a hospital. When I was doing my PhD in Winterpeg I laughed every time I got off the bus because right in front of the hospital was a funeral home. Talk about having the jump on the competition.

I'm still hungry after lunch. Maybe I'll crank up the rf and see if I can turn this sucker into a giant microwave...
