title: [Role of arthrography in imaging of the temporomandibular joint in 1992].
abstract: In this text we briefly want to discuss the role of the arthrographic examination of the temporomandibular joint for detection of disc pathology. We will mention the normal anatomy and function of the temporomandibular joint, the technique for performing arthrograms and the classification of the most frequent disc pathology. This will be illustrated by some arthrographic examples of anterior disc displacement without reduction, disc perforation, and medial disc displacement. Finally the advantages of arthrography in comparison with other investigation techniques will be discussed.
