[Results of magnetic resonance tomography (MRT) in 100 temporomandibular joints].
The results obtained by MRT of 100 temporomandibular joints in 12 probands with healthy dentitions and 38 patients are reported. The findings were dominated by dislocations of the articular disk. Diagnosis of this condition presented no difficulties, as the interarticular disk can be well differentiated from the adjoining bone structures and the bilaminar zone. The high quality of the soft tissue images renders MRT a valuable procedure completing other examination methods such as panoramic or Schüller radiographs for diagnosis of TMJ diseases.
