Abstract: Disclosed herein is a method for capturing a dental object with an object volume, in particular, at least one part of a maxilla and/or a mandible, with the sue of an MRT apparatus. A plurality of MRT segment images, which depict the defined segmented volume regions are acquired by an MRT apparatus within a measurement volume of the MRT apparatus. The segmented volume regions overlap no more than partially. In this case a target surface is defined or has already been defined. Then a two dimensional composite image, which corresponds to a two dimensional aggregate image through the target surface within the object volume of the dental object, is generated computer-aided from the individual MRT segment images.

Abstract: Described is a method for detecting and displaying the movement of a temporomandibular joint which connects a lower jaw and an upper jaw by magnetic resonance imaging. A marker is secured to the lower jaw, a marker movement curve is generated using magnetic resonance imaging measurement data sets during a first measurement interval, during which the lower jaw is moved relative to the upper jaw, and a point which corresponds to a first position of the lower jaw relative to the upper jaw is ascertained on the movement curve. An image data set is generated during a second measurement interval, during which the temporomandibular joint is not moved, and a first model, which represents at least one part of the upper jaw and/or a temporal bone part that comprises the temporomandibular joint socket, and a second model, which represents at least one part of the lower jaw, are ascertained therefrom. A movement curve of the second model relative to the first model is calculated and displayed using the marker movement curve.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a method for generating an MRI image in which a radial or spiral k-chamber path with a constant angular increment Psi is used to take an MRI image, the angular increment Psi being in the angular range of between 5-55 degrees or being in the corresponding supplementary angle Psi′ and is selected according to the formula PsiN,M=pi/(N+1/(M+tau−1)). Alternatively, for an angular increment Psi which deviates from the angle increment of the optimal distribution of n radial profiles Psiopt=180°/n, the minimum scanning efficiency of the angular increment Psi for n>21 profiles is greater than 0.95, the angular increment Psi is in an angular range of 5° to less than 68.7537°, in particular between 5-55 degrees or in the corresponding supplementary angle Psi′. Compared to the arrangement of the radial or spiral profile using the golden angle of 111.24°, the angle increments calculated according to the above formula lead to lower eddy current artifacts, for example during the use of a b-SSFP-pulse sequence.
