Dynamic Sagittal Half-Fourier Acquired Single-Shot Turbo Spin-Echo MR Imaging of the Temporomandibular Joint: Initial Experience and Comparison with Sagittal Oblique Proton-Attenuation Images

Abstract

Dynamic HASTE TMJ MR imaging is a time-efficient adjunct to standard MR imaging protocols, producing fewer motion artifacts, additional range of motion information, and a dynamic assessment of disk position, when compared with static imaging. Further study is needed to evaluate the role of this sequence in diagnosing disk displacement.
