  • Title: Panoramic radiography for temporomandibular joint arthrography: a description of arthropanoramograms.
    Author: Abramovitch K, Langlais RP, Dolwick MF.
    Journal: Oral Surg Oral Med Oral Pathol; 1989 Jun; 67(6):775-80. PubMed ID: 2740099.
    Abstract:
    TMJ arthrograms done with panoramic radiography, i.e., arthropanoramography, can demonstrate intracapsular disk displacement and perforation pathoses. These views are very practical for inferior synovial cavity arthrograms performed in the dental operatory since panoramic radiographic machines have become common in modern dental practices. Specific advantages of arthropanoramography include the decreased financial cost and decreased radiation exposure to the patient. Arthropanoramography does not replace tomography or videofluoroscopy in TMJ arthrography. It is, however, described as a simple alternative to the more conventional forms of arthrography.
