title: [The image of the temporomandibular joint in the panoramic radiographs].
abstract: Of the general panoramic radiographs those with an intraoral focus (magnifying panoramic radiography) are not suitable to represent the temporo-mandibular joint. In contrast, panoramic tomograms represent the temporo-mandibular joint better, but they cannot be recommended unreservedly for the exact evaluation of this region. Presently there is no substitute for conventional radiographs.
