Fig. 6 — Normal bone marrow signal and enhancement (grade 0) in a 14-year-old boy. a-c Sagittal oblique T1-weighted (TR/TE 300/4.2 ms, flip angle 80°) gradient echo image without fat saturation (a), T2-weighted (TR/TE 5,400/77 ms) fat saturated image (b) and postcontrast fat-saturated T1-weighted (TR/TE 670/10 ms) fast spin echo images (c) show the marrow space of the mandibular condyle (*) with isointense signal compared to that of the mandibular ramus (**). Note prominent veins surrounding the joint (arrows in b,c) and slightly increased enhancement of the posterior upper joint compartment. For this age, the condyle appears rather round and lacks an anterior tilt of the mandibular neck. T1 T1-weighted, T1 fs Gd contrast-enhanced fat saturated T1-weighted, T2 fs fat saturated T2-weighted
