Summary

The aim of this research is to add to the limited body of knowledge comparing the effectiveness of ultrasound (US) to MRI diagnoses in patients with TMJ disorders. More specifically, we will review the efficacy of handheld US devices, which has not yet been done to the author's knowledge.

Conditions

  • Temporomandibular Joint Disorders
  • Magnetic Resonance Image
  • Handheld Ultrasound

Interventions

DEVICE

Butterfly Network handheld ultrasound

Patients would be examined with a handheld US machine which would allow for dynamic imaging chairside and could easily be integrated into both hospital-based and private clinical practices. This would allow the patient to benefit from realtime imaging and a faster preliminary diagnosis with virtually no additional risks.
