Abstract

The purpose of this study was to decide the diagnostic value of transmaxillary and transcranial projection in the evaluation of mandibular condyles. Five dry skulls with intact anatomic structure were selected for this study and the artificial osteophytes were attached to 9 different are as of the mandibular condyle. Ninety transcranial and forty-five transmaxillary radiographs were taken and then the radiographs were evaluated three times. The results were as follows; In transcranial radiographs, superocentral osteophyte was easily observed in closing state than in opening state (p<0.05). But there were no significant differences in other locations (p>0.05). The osteophytes on the medial and central portion easily observed at the transmaxillary projection than transcranial projection (p<0.05), but there was no significant difference on the lateral portion (p>0.05). The osteophytes on the superior (p<0.01) and posterior (p<0.01.) portion were easily observed at the transmaxillary projection than transcranial projection, but there was no significant difference on the anterior portion (p >0.05). The more laterally located osteophytes (p<0.01) at the transcranial projections were easily observed. The more posteriorly located osteophytes (p<0.05) at the transmaxillary projections were easily observed.

5개의 건조두개골의 하악과두에 인위적으로 골증식체를 형성한 후 수직각 25°, 수평각 0°를 부여한 transcranial 촬영법과 두부규격 방사선 촬영기를 이용한 transmaxillary 촬영법을 시행하여 얻은 90매의 transcranial 및 45매의 transmaxillary방사선사진을 통해 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 1. transcranial 촬영법에서 골증식체가 하악과두의 상중부에 있을 때 폐구시에 관찰이 용이하였으나 (p<0.05), 그 이외의 부위에서는 통계학적인 유의성이 없었다(p>0.05). 2. 골증식체가 하악과두의 내부 및 중부 (p<0.05)에 위치하였을 때는 transmaxillary 촬영법에서 관찰이 더 용이하였으며 외부에 위치하였을 때는 통계학적인 유의성이 없었다 (p>0.05). 3. 골증식체가 하악과두의 상방(p<0.05) 및 후방(p<0.01.)에 위치하였을 때는 trans maxillary 촬영법에서 관찰이 더 용이하였으며 전방에 위치하였을 때는 통계학적인 유의성이 없었다. (p>0.05). 4. Transcranial 촬영법에서는 골증식체가 하악과두의 측방으로 위치할수록(p<0.01), transmaxillary 촬영법에서는 후방으로 위치할수록(p<0.35) 관찰이 용이하였다.
