Relationship between fat fraction and age, and morphological features of lateral pterygoid muscle. NP, Normal position disk, ADDWOR, Anterior disk displacement without reduction. (a, c) There is a moderate positive correlation between fat fraction and age in NP group and ADDWOR group, (b) while no significant correlation is found in ADDWR group. (d) There is a weak negative correlation between fat fraction and length, (e, f) while fat fraction is not found significantly correlated with width and thickness
