High resolution computed tomography has proved to be invaluable in the evaluation of the temporal bone, and demonstrates its bony anatomy in exquisite detail. Furthermore, the role of magnetic resonance imaging, especially with improving high resolution techniques, has continued to expand in the past decade. A thorough understanding of normal temporal bone anatomy is a requisite for accurate radiologic evaluation. The ensuing discussion is an attempt to summarize the normal temporal bone anatomy with emphasis on clinically relevant structures, temporal bone pneumatization, and common anatomic variants.
高分辨率计算机断层扫描已被证明在颞骨评估中具有极高价值，能极其详细地显示其骨质解剖结构。此外，在过去十年中，磁共振成像的作用，尤其是随着高分辨率技术的不断改进，持续扩大。透彻了解正常颞骨解剖结构是进行准确放射学评估的必要条件。接下来的讨论旨在总结正常颞骨解剖结构，重点关注临床相关结构、颞骨气化以及常见解剖变异。
