Summary

Optimizing Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) for the Temporomandibular Joint (TMJ) requires specific diffusion parameters. Steady-state free precession (SSFP) with a diffusion moment of 100-150 mT/m(*)msec provides superior image quality for TMJ diagnostics.

Magnetic Resonance Imaging

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a noninvasive medical imaging technique based on a phenomenon of nuclear physics discovered in the 1930s, in which matter exposed to magnetic fields and radio waves was found to emit radio signals. In 1970, a physician and researcher named Raymond Damadian noticed that malignant (cancerous) tissue gave off different signals than normal body tissue. He applied for a patent for the first MRI scanning device in clinical use by the early 1980s. The early MRI...
