Dynamic MR dacryocystography: a new method for evaluating nasolacrimal duct obstructions.
OBJECTIVE
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the clinical performance of newly implemented dynamic MR dacryocystography.


CONCLUSIONS
Dynamic MR dacryocystography, which requires neither ionizing radiation nor chemical contrast media with high viscosity, may be a useful tool for depicting nasolacrimal obstructions.
