Further all imaging techniques are not equally effective for many conditions in which the TMJ is involved. The efficacy of any imaging examination rests not just with its technical adequacy but also with its diagnostic accuracy, as a complex interaction exists between the image and the person interpreting it. MRI is most specific and sensitive for interpretation of soft tissue and inflammatory conditions in the joint. Using high-field strength surface coil MRI to...
