The diagnosis of apical periodontitis and the
differentiation between acute and chronic lesions with
MRI requires images of identical anatomy with different
contrasts (T1w and T2w). A reduction of examination time
can be obtained by sharing the information of high
frequency components of k-space. Using the information
of an high resolution reference scan (T1w) a high
resolution multi contrast image of a low-resolution T2w
scan of the same anatomy can be provided.
