ChAracterization of Normal and Pathological moRphological Variations of the TEMporomandibular Joint by Real-time magnetIc reSonance Imaging

The Real Time MRI Rapid Flash sequence is particularly interesting for the study of moving organs and joints.

This sequence will make it possible to characterize normal and pathological temporomandibular joint movements by MRI.
