Fig. 3B. —Postcontrast fat-saturated axial images of 74-year-old man with lymphoma. Volumetric interpolated breath-hold examination (VIBE) image (TR/TE, 4.3/2.0; flip angle, 15°) (A) and spinecho T1-weighted image (502/17.0) (B) of hypopharynx show tumor involving epiglottic area (arrows). Lesion was relatively unclear on spin-echo T1-weighted image because of motion. In this case, overall image quality and artifact were evaluated as being better on VIBE image than on spin-echo T1-weighted image. Tumor conspicuity is scored superior on VIBE as well. VIBE image was scored as 5, whereas spin-echo T1-weighted image was scored as 4 for all three items.
