Correct diagnosis of internal derangements of the temporomandibular joint requires both a comprehensive clinical and radiographic evaluation. Plain film tomography, transcranial radiography, arthrography and computed tomography have all been used to assess the status of the joint structures. Magnetic resonance imaging is a relatively new modality used for imaging many different organ systems. Magnetic resonance imaging of the temporomandibular joint has certain distinct advantages over previously used techniques in evaluating patients for internal joint derangements. The applicability of magnetic resonance imaging in the diagnosis of internal derangements will be discussed.
颞下颌关节内紊乱的正确诊断需要全面的临床和影像学评估。平片体层摄影、经颅放射摄影、关节造影和计算机断层扫描都已用于评估关节结构的状况。磁共振成像（MRI）是一种用于对许多不同器官系统进行成像的相对较新的方法。在评估颞下颌关节内紊乱的患者时，颞下颌关节的磁共振成像相对于以前使用的技术具有某些明显的优势。本文将讨论磁共振成像在诊断关节内紊乱中的适用性。
