ABSTRACT

The temporomandibular joint (TMJ) is a small joint with complex anatomy and function. Diverse pathologies with very different symptoms can affect the TMJ. While various imaging techniques such as plain-film radiography and computed tomography can be useful, magnetic resonance imaging's superior contrast resolution reveals additional structures like the articular disk, making this technique essential for accurate diagnosis and treatment planning. We analyze the MRI signs of the different pathologies that can affect the TMJ from the structural and functional points of view.

ABSTRACT

A pesar de ser una estructura de pequeño tamaño, la articulación temporomandibular (ATM) posee una compleja anatomía y una gran capacidad funcional, además de ser el asiento de diversas entidades patológicas con manifestaciones clínicas muy diferentes. Debido a esto se hace necesario un estudio muy preciso de la articulación. Las distintas técnicas de formación de imagen como la radiología convencional y la tomografía computarizada (TC) son útiles, pero la resonancia magnética (RM), debido a su resolución de contraste, que muestra no sólo el hueso sino también estructuras como el disco articular, resulta imprescindible para el diagnóstico exacto y la planificación terapéutica adecuada. En el presente trabajo se analizan los criterios semiológicos mediante RM de las distintas entidades patológicas que pueden afectar a la ATM desde el punto de vista funcional y estructural (AU)
