title: [Ultrasonographic study of the craniomandibular joint. Evaluation of the technic: apropos of 140 examinations].
abstract: Ultrasonography of the temporomandibular joint is a non-invasive, low cost, easy to perform examination. Despite promising results, further improvements in reliability can be expected with technological progress. We report our experience with 140 explorations which we hope incite interest of other researchers in this technique.
