A standardized CT procedure for examination of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) with axial and coronal scanning as well as reformatted coronal and sagittal sections, was performed on 32 adults. These included subjects with normal TMJ and patients suffering from muscular dysfunction/disc displacement, arthrosis or rheumatoid arthritis. Some normal CT appearances simulating disease were presented. Axial CT scanning appeared to be the most useful method for demonstrating osseous abnormalities of the TMJ. The diagnostic information was occasionally supplemented by the coronal scanning, which may be difficult to perform on patients with neck stiffness. Reformatted coronal or sagittal sections mostly confirmed TMJ abnormality and supplemented the findings at axial scans in about one third of the patients. 相似文献

OBJECTIVES: To assess the topographic relationship between the pneumatic spaces of the temporal bone and the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) using high-resolution CT. METHODS: Findings from 100 consecutive patients who had undergone high-resolution axial CT of the base of the skull were reviewed on a digital imaging workstation. Additional multiplanar reformatted images were created in the sagittal and coronal planes through the TMJ. The extension of the pneumatic spaces of the temporal bone and their relation to the TMJ were determined on both sides. RESULTS: The extent of pneumatisation of the temporal bone varied considerably. The roof of the TMJ fossa was pneumatised in 51 patients. The articular eminence contained air spaces in 12 patients, the root of the zygomatic process in five patients. Air cells in the peritubal area extended into the medial wall of the glenoid fossa 53 patients. In approximately 25% the extent of pneumatisation showed marked asymmetry. CONCLUSIONS: Pneumatisation of the temporal bone frequently extends close to the TMJ. Knowledge of these air spaces is helpful for the interpretation of imaging studies such as panoramic radiographs and to understand the spread of pathological processes into the joint. 相似文献

Computed tomography (CT) of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) was compared with hypocycloidal tomography in 30 joints of 15 adults with rheumatic disease. CT included 1.5 mm thick axial scans (at 1.0 mm intervals) with reformatted oblique sagittal and oblique coronal sections. Multisection (at 2.0 mm intervals) tomography included oblique sagittal and occasionally, oblique coronal sections. CT demonstrated bone abnormalities in 21 and tomography in 20 joints, indicating high agreement between the imaging modalities regarding number of abnormal TMJs. Bone structures were, however, better visualized by multiplanar CT due to superior contrast and spatial resolution particularly in the most lateral and medial parts of the joint, indicating superiority of CT for depicting subtle bony TMJ abnormalities in patients with rheumatic disease. 相似文献

PURPOSE: To present the imaging findings and treatment options for incomplete intertrochanteric fractures. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Among 31 patients with the magnetic resonance (MR) imaging diagnosis of incomplete intertrochanteric fracture, 30 also underwent radiography. MR and radiographic findings were compared. Note was made of fracture length and extent as depicted on the coronal and axial MR images, treatment (surgical vs conservative), and follow-up. RESULTS: Correlation between radiographic and MR findings was poor. Incomplete intertrochanteric fracture was the prospective radiographic diagnosis in only one case. Fracture in 18 patients was treated surgically and in 13 was managed conservatively. In both groups, the average age of the patients and length of the fractures and the percentage of separate fractures involving the greater trochanter and crossing the midline of the femur in the axial plane were the same. Fractures crossed the midline in the coronal plane in 50% of the surgical group but in only 23% of the nonsurgical group. Average time from injury to ambulation was 2 days less in the surgical group, but no difference in functional status was found subjectively between the two groups at clinical follow-up. CONCLUSION: Incomplete intertrochanteric fractures are a previously unrecognized subset of intertrochanteric fractures that are diagnosed unequivocally only with MR imaging. 相似文献

We sought to analyze retrospectively the advantages of coronal and sagittal reformations obtained with multidetector row computed
tomography (CT) in patients with acute head trauma. Multidetector 16-section CT was performed in 200 patients (110 male and
90 female; age range, 3–87 years; mean age, 45 years) with acute head trauma. Scans were performed sequentially, and axial
5-mm-thick slices were obtained from base of skull to vertex. The source data set was reformatted in coronal and sagittal
planes, with 2-mm-thick sections at 2-mm intervals. Images were analyzed retrospectively by two independent, blinded readers.
The final diagnosis was determined by clinical follow-up. CT imaging abnormalities were detected in 55 out of 200 patients
who were scanned for head trauma. Acute traumatic intracranial abnormality was detected on axial scans in 45 patients. Subtle
findings were confirmed on coronal and sagittal CT reformations in ten cases, and these were undetected initially on axial
CT. Coronal and sagittal reformations confirmed subtle findings in 18.2% (10/55) of the cases (P = 0.001). Indeterminate neuroimaging findings confirmed by coronal and sagittal CT head reformations include tentorial and
interhemispheric fissure subdural hemorrhage, subarachnoid hemorrhage, and inferior frontal and temporal lobe contusions.
Coronal and sagittal CT head reformations improve the sensitivity and diagnostic confidence in the clinical setting of acute
trauma. Overall, coronal and sagittal reformations improved diagnostic confidence and interobserver agreement over axial images
alone for visualization of normal structures and in the diagnosis of acute abnormality. 相似文献

PURPOSE: This study sought to evaluate the accuracy of multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) for preoperative staging of extrahepatic bile duct (EHD) carcinoma and to assess the value of coronal reformations from isotropic voxels. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Thirty patients with surgically proven EHD cancer underwent dynamic MDCT with coronal reformation. Two experienced radiologists independently evaluated contrast-enhanced dynamic transverse CT images (axial approach) and combined transverse and coronal images (combined approach). The radial extent (TNM staging) and the vertical extent of tumors were assessed and correlated with pathological findings of surgical specimen. RESULTS: All of primary tumors were detected by axial and combined CT imaging (100%). Overall accuracy of the T staging was 73% (22/30) with axial and 77% (23/30) with combined CT imaging (P>0.05). The accuracy of N staging was 57% (17/30) with axial and 63% (19/30) with combined CT imaging (P>0.05). The accuracy of M staging was 97% (29/30) with both axial and combined CT imaging.Upper margin accuracy was 97% (29/30) for axial and 100% for combined CT imaging (P>0.05), whereas that of the lower margin was 90% (27/30) for axial and 93% (28/30) for combined CT imaging (P>0.05). CONCLUSIONS: Multidetector computed tomography was sufficiently accurate for evaluating the vertical extents, but radial extents of EHD cancer. The addition of coronal reformatted images did not improve the accuracy for staging of EHD cancer. 相似文献

The normal temporomandibular joint (TMJ) was evaluated using magnetic resonance (MR) imaging with a surface coil in five subjects and compared with the abnormal joint in 37 patients (aged 14-59 years; total joints studied, 76). Multisection 3-mm-thick sagittal, coronal, and axial images were obtained with a 1.5-T MR system and 6.5-cm-diameter surface coil using both partial saturation and spin-echo sequences (TR = 1,000 msec, TE = 20 or 25 msec). A comparison with arthrography (n = 13 joints), computed tomography (CT) (n = 11), and surgical (n = 5) findings demonstrated that MR imaging with a surface coil provided an accurate depiction of both normal and abnormal TMJs. MR provided information about meniscal position, morphology, and histology that was not available with either arthrography or CT alone. The imaging potential of MR and its noninvasive characteristics warrant priority for further examination of MR as a useful modality in the diagnosis of TMJ pain and dysfunction. 相似文献

OBJECTIVES: To compare 2D CT alone with 2D + 3D reconstruction for pre-operative planning of implant placement. METHODS: Spiral CT scans of 33 consecutive patients were used for both reformatted 2D and 3D computer-assisted planning. The number, site and size of implants and the occurrence of anatomical complications during planning and implant placement were statistically compared using the percentage agreement and the Kendall's correlation coefficients (tau). Although planning was performed in 33 patients, implants were only placed in 21 patients. In 11 patients surgery was based on 2D + 3D imaging and in ten patients on 2D planning. RESULTS: Agreement between planning and placement of implants was highly significant for the implant sites selected. For 2D based planning and placement, agreement reached 68% (tau = 0.94). For 2D + 3D based planning and placement, agreement attained 73% (tau = 0.89). For planning and placement of implant size based on 2D images, agreement was 31% and not significant (tau = 0.23). When based on 2D + 3D images, agreement for implant size was 44% (tau = 0.5). Agreement was not significant for anatomical complications: 69% for 2D planning and 71% for 2D + 3D planning (tau = 0.24 for 2D and tau = 0.21 for 2D + 3D). CONCLUSIONS: The 3D planning system is a reliable tool for pre-operative assessment of implant placement. Both 2D and 2D + 3D planning have a good predictability for the number and site of the implants but less so for anatomical complications. However, the 2D + 3D planning provides a better pre-operative assessment of implant size. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: The purposes of this study were to evaluate the quality of coronal reformatted images obtained from volumetric expiratory high-resolution CT imaging and to compare coronal and axial images with regard to their usefulness in detecting and characterizing air trapping. SUBJECTS AND METHODS. We studied 40 consecutive patients with known or suspected diffuse lung diseases with airway abnormalities who underwent volumetric expiratory high-resolution CT between May and July 2003. Respiratory motion artifacts were evaluated at upper, middle, and lower lung areas. Cardiac motion, beam-hardening, and other artifacts were evaluated throughout the lung fields. Detectability, clarity of borders, size, distribution, and extent of air trapping were compared on axial versus coronal end-expiratory high-resolution CT images. RESULTS: Respiratory motion artifacts were either imperceptible or not diagnostically limiting in all patients except three (7%) with diagnostically limiting image degradation at lower lung areas. Other diagnostically limiting image degradation was caused by beam-hardening artifacts in two patients (5%) and by quantum noise in two other patients (5%). The borders of air trapping were more clearly identified on coronal images than on axial images (grade 1 [vague], nine vs three; grade 2 [partially clear], 23 vs 21; grade 3 [completely clear], eight vs 16; median, two vs two; p = 0.001). The coronal reformatted images were as informative as axial images for detecting and assessing the classification and extent of air trapping. CONCLUSION: Coronal reformations of volumetric expiratory high-resolution CT scans were acceptable in image quality and provided additional value by affording clearer visualization of the borders of air trapping than was found in contiguous axial images. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: The purpose of our study was to assess the relative accuracy of imaging findings related to peripheral recurrent nerve paralysis on axial CT studies of the neck. Also assessed were imaging findings of a central vagal neuropathy. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We retrospectively identified 40 patients who had clinically diagnosed vocal cord paralysis and had undergone CT. Eight imaging signs of vocal cord paralysis were assessed, and an imaging distinction between a central or peripheral vagal neuropathy was made by evaluating asymmetric dilatation of the oropharynx with thinning of the constrictor muscles. In two patients, we studied the use of reformatted coronal images from a multidetector CT scanner. RESULTS: For unilateral vocal cord paralysis, the most sensitive imaging findings were ipsilateral pyriform sinus dilatation, medial positioning and thickening of the ipsilateral aryepiglottic fold, and ipsilateral laryngeal ventricle dilatation. In two patients, coronal reformatted images aided the diagnosis by better showing flattening of the subglottic arch. Imaging findings allowed localization of a central vagal neuropathy in four patients. CONCLUSION: Three reliable imaging findings associated with vocal cord paralysis were identified on routine axial CT studies: ipsilateral pyriform sinus dilatation, medial positioning and thickening of the ipsilateral aryepiglottic fold, and ipsilateral laryngeal ventricle dilatation. Coronal reformatted images of the larynx may be helpful, but they are not necessary in 95% of patients. Ipsilateral pharyngeal constrictor muscle atrophy is a helpful imaging finding to localize a more central vagal neuropathy. Our findings can aid radiologists in identifying peripheral and central vagal neuropathy in patients who present for CT of the neck who have a normal voice and are without a history suggestive of a vagal problem. 相似文献

Objectives:
We aimed to investigate the correlation between the disc status in MRI and the different types of traumatic temporomandibular joint (TMJ) ankylosis.Methods:
51 consecutive patients (69 joints), diagnosed with traumatic TMJ ankylosis with a residual condyle (Types A2 and A3), were included in this study. All patients had pre-operative MRI, which was reviewed to determine the disc shape, length and position. The results were compared using the Mann–Whitney test.Results:
There were 37 joints of Type A2 ankylosis and 32 joints of Type A3. All joints of Type A2 and 27 joints of Type A3 (84.4%) definitely had a discernible disc, while 5 joints of Type A3 had no discernible discs. Among the discernible discs, the lateral disc of Type A2 and the whole disc of Type A3 had severe deformity, while the medial disc of Type A2 had mild deformity. The mean (standard deviation) disc length was 10.88 (1.19) mm in Type A2, but 7.50 (0.82) mm in Type A3. There was a significant difference between Types A2 and A3 (p < 0.05). As for the disc position, the intermediate position was found in all joints.Conclusions:
There is a correlation between the disc status and the different types of traumatic TMJ ankylosis. Therefore, MRI examination is needed to help treatment planning and predict post-operative TMJ function. 相似文献13.
Radiographic examination of the temporomandibular joint using cone beam computed tomography 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
Cone beam CT (CBCT) is a new technique for maxillofacial imaging. We describe a reconstruction technique for radiographic examination of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) using CBCT, and we further present four cases where the technique was employed. The technique provides a complete radiographic investigation of the bony components of the TMJ. The reconstructed images are of high diagnostic quality. The examination time is shorter and the patient dose is lower than that with conventional CT. It may therefore be considered as the imaging technique of choice when investigation of bony changes of the TMJ is the task at hand. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: Spondyloarthropathies are rheumatoid diseases that predominantly affect the axial skeleton, causing pain, stiffness, and ankylosis. The aims of this article are to illustrate the different stages of the diseases from early inflammatory involvement to ankylosis using CT and MRI and to discuss the role of imaging in the management of affected patients. CONCLUSION: CT and MRI are the most sensitive techniques in the detection of axial involvement, permitting earlier diagnosis and optimized treatment. 相似文献

PURPOSE: We investigated whether any morphometric or densitometric changes are detectable in the kidneys of type 2 diabetic patients. MATERIAL AND METHODS: We retrospectively reviewed the CT findings of 40 diabetic patients and of 20 non-diabetics (the control group) submitted to triphasic helical CT for different abdominal conditions. The type 2 diabetic patients were 23 men and 17 women, mean age 62 years, while the nondiabetic controls were 12 men and 8 women, mean age 58 years. All the CT images were analyzed using the Multiplanar Reconstruction (MPR) software. We classified the diabetic patients as either nephropathic or non-nephropathic based on laboratory signs of renal disease, and divided them into three groups based on the duration of their diabetes (0-5 years, 5-10 years, > 10 years). We evaluated morphometric features, such as the presence of parenchymal or vascular calcifications, axial and coronal renal diameters, coronal renal area, and corticomedullary ratio, and densitometric and functional features, such as unenhanced renal density, cortical and medullary density in the arterial phase, parenchymal density in the nephrographic phase, and contrast elimination. We also compared the results in our subgroups of patients with those in the controls. RESULTS: Both renal diameters on axial sections and cortical density in the arterial phase were significantly lower in the nephropathic group (p < 0.05) than in nonnephropathic patients and controls. The patients with shorter duration of their diabetes had significantly greater axial diameters (p < 0.05); a longer-standing disease correlated significantly (p < 0.05) with smaller axial diameters of kidneys and lower cortical density in the arterial phase. No significant correlation was found for any other parameter. CONCLUSIONS: Renal diameters on axial and coronal sections and cortical density in the arterial phase can be useful indices of early nephropathy in diabetic patients. Further studies are warranted to make these findings suitable for use in clinical practice. 相似文献

The intracranial extension of tumors of the nasopharynx and related spaces presents a difficult imaging problem. Unlike computed tomography (CT) scans, magnetic resonance (MR) images are not limited by beam-hardening artifacts from bone or dental amalgam. Forty-six patients with malignant tumors of the nasopharynx and related spaces affecting the skull base underwent MR imaging. MR images were obtained with a 0.3-T permanent-magnet imaging system in axial, sagittal, and coronal planes. MR findings were compared with clinical records, plain radiographs, CT scans, and pathologic correlates when available. MR imaging could demonstrate neoplastic invasion of the bone of the floor of the middle cranial fossa and the vital soft-tissue structures related to it as well as or better than CT. Tumor extension was viewed directly as a continuous mass or indirectly by marrow replacement or displacement of normal structures. Specific anatomic routes through which tumors extend from the nasopharynx to the middle cranial fossa were inferred from MR findings. 相似文献
