Fourteen patients with a history of pain, clicking and locking of the temporomandibular joint were assessed clinically and by using computerized axial tomography (CAT). The findings of the clinical and CAT scan assessment were correlated and compared with surgical observations. Computerized axial tomography scanning proved to be a highly accurate method of assessing meniscal position. With the advent of more sophisticated methods of CAT scanning, it provides an accurate, non-invasive method of assessing the temporomandibular joint and providing a basis for more effective treatment planning of problems related to internal derangements.
对14例有颞下颌关节疼痛、弹响和绞锁病史的患者进行了临床评估，并使用计算机断层扫描（CAT）。将临床评估结果和CAT扫描结果进行关联，并与手术观察结果进行比较。计算机断层扫描被证明是评估半月板位置的一种高度准确的方法。随着更先进的CAT扫描方法的出现，它提供了一种准确、无创的方法来评估颞下颌关节，并为更有效地治疗与内部紊乱相关的问题提供依据。
