A comparison of magnetic resonance imaging and cone beam computerized tomography in the evaluation of temporomandibular joint changes in rheumatoid arthritis patients
Abstract:Objectives: This study aimed to determine the features of temporomandibular joint involvement in rheumatoid arthritis patients and to examine the association of radiographic changes with RA duration by comparing the diagnostic efficacy of cone-beam computerized tomography to magnetic resonance imaging in identifying changes of TMJs.Methods: This case-control study was performed on 40 RA patients with 10 healthy adults (control cases). Clinical examination with CBCT and MRI as well as laboratory tests were done… Show more
