Abstract

The design, application, and advantages of a temporomandibular joint (TMJ) positioning unit adapted to the RSI microfocus magnification system are described. The reasons for improved TMJ images with this system are discussed and the rationale for film-screen choice presented. The issue of patient radiation exposure is also considered. This system provided superior TMJ images at acceptable levels of exposure.
