저자는 악간절기능장애의 소견을 가진 환자 75명과 악관절기능장애의 병마 및 현증이 없는 정상인 75명을 표준화된 조건하에서 두부축방향방사선촬영을 하여 과두수평각과 initial 및 final depth of cut를 측정하고 통계학적으로 분석한 결과를 다음과 같이 요약할 수 있었다. 환자군과 정상군, 환측과 비환측에 있어 과두수평각과 initial 및 final depth of cut는 통계학적으로 유의한 차가 없었으므로 두부축방향방사선사진은 임상에서 악관절기능장애의 유무 및 환측과 비환측의 감별에 이용하기에 부적합한 방법이라 사료된다. 본 연구의 계측치는 편차가 심하므로 환자마다 과두수평각을 측정하여 이각에 맞추어 악관절단층촬영을 해야 한다고 사료된다.

The purpose of this study was to observe mandibular condyle shape in an asymptomatic population. In order to carry out this study, 96 temporomandibular joints in 48 adults(22 males, 26 females), who were asymptomatic for temporomandibular disturbances and had no history of prosthodontic or orthodontic treatments, were selected, and radiographed using the Sectograph(Denar Co., U.S.A.) for lateral and frontal individualized corrected TMJ tomograph and submentovertex radiograph. Mandibular condyles were classified morphologically, and measured medioateral and anteroposterior dimensions and condylar angulation. The obtained results were as follows. 1. In the classification of condyle shape on lateral tomographs, 94.8% were convex type and 5.2% were angled type. 2. In the classification of condyle shape on frontal tomographs, 45.3% were convex type, 32.0% were round type, 16.0% were flat type, and 6.7% were angled type. 3. In the classification of condyle shape on submentovertex radiographs, 34.5% were flat-convex type, 22.9% were flat-flat type, 20.8% were concave-convex type, 19.8% were convex-convex type, and 1.0% were concave-flat type and convex-flat type. Concave-concave type, convex-concave type, and flat-concave type were not observed. 4. The average mediolateral legth of the condyle was 19.3㎜ and the average anteroposterior length was 9.4㎜. The average angle between the long axis of condyle and the coronal plane made on submentovertex view was 19.6 degrees.

This study was performed to investigate the midline having the least difference between the right and left structure among the lines that had been used in the submentovertex analysis and secondarily to know the distribution of asymmetry and it's degree existed normal persons and asymmetric patients. The subjects consisted of 40 normal adult patients and 40 asymmetric adult patients. The computerized analyses from submentovertex cepholometric radiograph were carried out. The results were as follows : 1. The right and left difference of the perpendicular bisecting line between right and left foramen spinosum was larger than the other midlines in the anterior area and it was decreased gradually as it progressed posteriorly. Specially the difference of this line was the smallest in the area where there was foramen spinosum. 2. The right and left difference of the perpendicular line through crista gali to the line between right and left foramen spinosum was smaller than the other midlines in the anterior area and it was increased gradually as it progressed posteriorly. 3. The right and left difference of the line between crista gali and anterior process of atlas was constant and smaller than the other midlines. 4. Asymmetry was a common finding in both normal and asymmetry group and left or right dominance of asymmetry was not statistically singnificant. 5. When the analyses were undertaken after submentovertex radiogram was divided into cranial base, upper face and lower face, the more inferior part showed relative asymmetry than the more superior part.

안면 비대칭 환자의 진단분석에 이용할 수 있는 이하두정 두부방사선 규격사진과 표면 근전도 검사 자료는 통용화된 진단분석법 부재 등의 이유로 제한적으로 사용되고 있다. 그러나 여타 진단분석법과 비교할 때, 수직 안모 유형의 평가 등 차별적인 정보를 얻을 수 있어 이에 대한 연구가 필요하리라 보인다. 본 연구의 목적은 안면 비대칭을 보이는 60명을 대상으로 이하두정 두부방사선 규격사진 및 저작근의 표면 근전도를 측정하여 수직 안모 유형과의 연관성 및 안면 비대칭과의 연관성을 평가하고자 함이다. 이하두정 두부방사선 규격사진 계측치 중 radiographic corpus length는 비편위측이 큰 값을 보였고 (p<0.001), 유의성은 없었으나 gonion to interspinosum axis는 편위측이 크고, gonion과 하악과두의 위치는 비편위측이 편위측에 비해 전방에 위치하였다 (p=0.07). 안정시 편위측 전측 두근의 근활성은 비편위측보다 높은 것으로 나타났다 (p<0.01). 또한 최대 폐구 시 교근의 활성은 유의성이 없었으나 비편위측에 비해 편위측이 큰 값을 보였다 (p<0.09). Facial index와 intercondylar axes angle은 양의 상관관계를 보였다 (p<0.01). 최대 폐구 시 편위측 및 비편위측의 교근의 활성은 facial index와 양의 상관관계를 보였다 (p<0.05). 이상의 결과를 통해 골격성 안면 비대칭을 보이는 환자에서 이하두정 두부방사선 규격사진과 표면 근전도 검사를 통해 비대칭 양상의 평가와 더불어 수직 안모 유형의 평가 또한 가능한 것으로 생각된다.

The purpose of this study was to perform the radiographic measurements and temporomandibular joint evaluation in mandibular asymmetry. For this study, thirty-two patients who have mandibular asymmetry were selected and submentovertex, panoramic and lateral corrected tomographic radiographs were taken. Horizontal and vertical analysis using various landmarks on these radiographs were performed. Also radiographic and clinical evaluation of temporomandibular joint were obtained. The results were as follows ; 1. On the submentovertex radiograph, the mean distance of Pogonion to midline was 5.0±3.8mm. 2. The mean distance of Pogonion to Gonion was 100.6±9.2mm in deviated side and 104.3±9.1mm in contra-lateral side, and there was a significant difference between the deviated and the contra-lateral side (p<0.001). 3. The distance difference of Pogonion to Gonion between the deviated and the contra-lateral side was significantly related to the degree of asymmetry (p<0.001). 4. On panoramic radiograph, the condylar height of the contra-lateral side was significantly longer than the one of the deviated side(p<0.001). 5. On lateral corrected tomogram, bony changes of temporomandibular joint were observed in 11 condyles of the deviated side and 9 condyles of the contra-lateral side. Erosion and osteophyte were the most common changes in both the deviated and the contra-lateral sides.

The purpose of this study was to observe the anatomic variation of condylar head and the positional relationship between condylar head and other anatomic structures of head by means of cephalometry using the submentovertex cephalogram from each person in centric occlusion for producing a good quality of temporomandibular joint radiograph. The 100 submentovertex cephalograms of 100 Korean adults consisted of 50 females ranged from 20 to 24 years age and 50 males ranged from 22 to 30 years age, were studied and analyzed statistically. The results were as follows; 1. The mean of the horizontal angulation of condylar head to the transmeatal line (EE-LA) was 18.5° (S.D. 7.9°), and all measurements that indicate the horizontal angulation of condylar head showed considerable differences among individuals. 2. In the comparison of male vs. female in the measurements, statistically significant differences were found in the majority of measurement items, and with exception of R-LA and LA-LA, the rest of these measurements were larger in male than in female. 3. In the comparison of left vs. right in the measurements, statistically significant differences were found in the majority of measurement items, and with exception of PC-CC, the rest of these measurements were larger in right than in left. As above, because the majority of measurements that involve the horizontal angulation of condylar head varied among individuals, between male and female, and between left and right, the condition of various temporomandibular joint radiography should be determined by means of cephalometry using the submentovertex cephalogram for producing the accurate radiographic image of temporomandibular joint.

Among the radiographs for temporomandibular joint, transcranial radiograph is widely used for screening and diagnosing temporomandibular disorder because it has sharp image and it is easy to take. This study was performed to compare condylar position and image sharpness in standard and individually corrected transcranial radiographs using Accurad-200 headholder. Submentovertex view, Reverse-Towne view, Standard and individually corrected transcranial radiographs of 45 university students who were randomly selected were traced, measured and analyzed. The results were as follows : 1. The means of condylar axes and lateral slopes were $16.8^{\circ}\;and\;22.5^{\circ}$ respectively. There were no differences between male and female or right and left side. 2. Individually corrected radiographs showed smaller posterior joint ,space and larger anterior joint space than standard radiographs, but superior joint space did net show a statistical difference between standard and individually corrected radiographs. 3. While a large number$(42.2\%)$ of the standard radiographs showed concentric condylar position, lots of(57.8) condylar positions were retropositioned in the individually corrected radiographs. 4. The image sharpness was inferior in the individually corrected radiographs to that of the standard radiographs.

This study was designed to evaluate the diagnostic effect of the simulatneous multifilm individualized lateral tomography in the diagnosis of the temporomandibular disorders. The subjects consisted of 29 patients with symptoms of the temporomandibular disorders. The panoramic view, oblique lateral transcranial radiograph (OLTC) (Hirozontal angulation 0°, Vertical angulation 29°), submentovertex view, and simultaneous multifilm individualized lateral tomographs (SMFI) in centric occlusion (2.5㎜ thickness difference, 5 layers) were taken for the patients. This study compared the findings from each radiographs in the determining of mandibular condylar position with dual linear measurement of the subjective closest posterior and subjective closest anterior interarticular space and in the determining of bony changes on the studied 30 temporomandibular joints (TMJ) with symptoms of the temporomandibular disorders. The results were as follows: 1. The distribution of condylar position of OLTC and 5 layers of SMFI depended on the radiographs (p<0.05). The condylar position and the distribution of condylar position of OLTC were more similar to lateral sections of the SMFI than mesial sections, and in the distribution of the condylar position of SMFI, the more lateral sections of SMFI, the more concentric 2. positions. There were 10 cases in which all layers showed the same condylar position as that of OLTC. There were 3 cases in which no layers showed the same condylar position as that of OLTC. 3. In the SMFI of 30 Temporomandibular joints studied, there is 13 cases in which all five layers represented the same condylar position in the same TMJ and 11 cases in which 4 layers represented the same condylar position in the same TMJ and 6 cases in which 3 layers represented the same condylar position in the same TMJ. So at least 3 layers of SMFI represented same condylar position in the same TMJ. 4. The bony changes were not detected in conventional radiographs on the temporomandibular joint and the bony changes were not detected in simultaneous multifilm individualized lateral tomographs. The bony changes were detected in conventional radiographs on the temporomandibular joint and the bony changes were detected in simultaneous multifilm individualized lateral tomographs. SMFI provided a meams for a three dimensional visualization of the shape, the position and the extent of bony changes of TMJ.
