Diagnostic imaging of TMJ has improved remarkably in the last 20 years. Various abnormalities related patient symptoms. Further studies using the latest imaging techniques will allow a better understanding of the sources of joint pain and the discrepancy between imaging findings and patient symptoms. For clinical practice, appropriate clinical examinations are needed to determine exactly which imaging findings are significant.
