Computed tomography (CT) has great potential for imaging intra- and extracapsular hard-tissue abnormality of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ). CT is not the best method of imaging disk position and form. For differential diagnosis of TMJ disorders, CT is especially successful in bony lesions. The study includes 16 examples of TMJ hard-tissue abnormality. In the differential diagnosis of all cases, CT played a decisive role.
计算机断层扫描(CT)在颞下颌关节(TMJ)囊内和囊外硬组织异常成像方面具有巨大潜力。CT并非成像盘状位置和形态的最佳方法。对于颞下颌关节紊乱的鉴别诊断,CT在骨病变方面尤为成功。该研究包括16例颞下颌关节硬组织异常病例。在所有病例的鉴别诊断中,CT发挥了决定性作用。
