title: [TMJ and radiographic methods. Comparative analysis].
abstract: The Authors take into consideration the complex and troublesome subject of instrumental radiological analysis applicable as a diagnostic aid in TMJ pathology. They therefore analyse, starting from their own experiences and after revising the pertaining literature, the pros and cons of the several radiological methodologies, both traditional and recently discovered as CAT and nuclear magnetic resonance. They do not only underline the possibilities and limits of the above mentioned methodologies, but ever define precisely how instrumental diagnostic techniques cannot, individually or variously combined, provide a complete diagnostic and aetiological view of the pathologies of TMJ without clinic information.
