The term sonography is used to describe the technique for recording and interpreting sound. Several authors have used sonography to study the diverse sounds emitted from the temporomandibular joints of patients with facial pain and masticatory dysfunction. This article describes recent technologic advances in sonography that permit digital computerized recordings of joint sounds. In addition, a software package was developed to perform sound-power spectral analysis. Selected cases are described. The potential of this new technology is explored.
超声检查一词用于描述记录和解释声音的技术。几位作者已使用超声检查来研究面部疼痛和咀嚼功能障碍患者颞下颌关节发出的各种声音。本文介绍了超声检查方面的最新技术进展,这些进展允许对关节声音进行数字计算机记录。此外,还开发了一个软件包来进行声功率谱分析。文中描述了一些选定的病例。探讨了这项新技术的潜力。
