Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorders are commonly encountered in the general population but often ignored or unrecognized. The detection and characterization of lesions has drastically improved over the years due to technological advances in cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). However, adequate knowledge of the normal imaging appearance on different imaging modalities as well as the broad variety of pathology is required to provide a proper radiologic assessment. This pictorial review focuses on TMJ pathology and its appearance on CBCT and MRI. A short overview of the technical aspects and normal anatomy are provided to round out this complete summary on the subject.
颞下颌关节（TMJ）疾病在普通人群中很常见，但往往被忽视或未被识别。由于锥形束 CT（CBCT）和磁共振成像（MRI）技术的进步，病变的检测和特征描述近年来有了显著改善。然而，为了提供正确的影像学评估，需要充分了解不同影像学模式下的正常影像学表现以及广泛的病理学知识。本影像学综述重点介绍 TMJ 病理学及其在 CBCT 和 MRI 上的表现。本文还简要概述了技术方面和正常解剖结构，以全面总结该主题。
