OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study was to evaluate a STIR sequence with an optimized inversion pulse that entails use of increased receiver bandwidth for metal artifact reduction. CONCLUSION: Image distortion, artifacts, insufficient fat suppression, and detection of relevant findings improved with the STIR optimized inversion pulse, which was associated with significant artifact reduction.
