Imaging of Temporomandibular Joint - Tapa blanda

Temporomandibular joint is a synovial articulation, formed by condyle of the mandible and glenoid (mandibular) fossa and articular eminence of temporal bone at the base of the skull. Temporomandibular joint disorders constitute a number of functional and pathological changes affecting not only the temporomandibular joint, but also the masticatory muscles. Imaging of temporomandibular joint allows a clinician to evaluate the integrity and relationships of temporomandibular joint, osseous components, confirm the extent or progression of joint disease and evaluate prognosis.
