Abstract

The temporomandibular joint (TMJ) is considered a bicondylar diarthrosis joint. Imaging evaluation comprises a fundamental part of its evaluation, which must include both bone characteristics as well as soft tissues and the relationship between them. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) represents the gold standard for the study of soft tissues, however, until now its greatest application continues to be the visualization of the articular disc. This is why the present article aimed to point out the available information in the literature regarding the visualization of the joint capsule in MRI as an independent structure.
