Evaluation of inflammatory vascular responses in patients with severe periodontitis by contrast-enhanced perfusion dental MRI
Perfusion dental MRI detects increased blood flow and vascular permeability in periodontal lesions. Increased permeability in adjacent bone suggests early inflammatory changes before structural loss. Dental MRI perfusion metrics could aid early lesion detection and monitoring of periodontitis.
