MR sialography using half-Fourier acquisition single-shot turbo spin-echo (HASTE) sequences

R Murakami et al. AJNR Am J Neuroradiol. 1998 May.

Abstract

We describe our preliminary experience with the half-Fourier acquisition single-shot turbo spin-echo (HASTE) sequences for MR imaging of the salivary gland ducts. In the majority of patients, the main parotid and/or submandibular gland ducts and large branches within the glands were detectable on MR images obtained in 2 seconds per section and within 3 minutes for the entire examination. MR sialography using HASTE sequences can be combined with conventional MR studies for the salivary glands.
