Fat suppression in magnetic resonance imaging of the head and neck region: is the two-point DIXON technique superior to spectral fat suppression?

CONCLUSION: The Dixon-FS technique is superior to the spectral technique due to improved homogeneity of fat suppression and overall image quality while maintaining lesion contrast. Advances in knowledge: T1 with Dixon fat suppression technique offers, compared to spectral fat suppression, significantly improved fat suppression homogeneity and over all image quality in imaging of the head and neck region.
