[Short tau inversion recovery fat suppression in T2-weighted turbo spin echo-MRI of malignancies of the mouth and oropharynx].
T1-weighted sequences before and after the application of contrast medium and T2-weighted sequences are used for magnetic resonance imaging of malignomas of the oral cavity and the oropharynx. The authors studied the utility of short tau inversion recovery fat suppression (STIR) in T2-weighted turbo spin echo sequences (TSE). ⋯ The STIR technique is beneficial for the progress in diagnostic imaging of cancer of the oral cavity and oropharynx.
