Dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging of masticatory muscles in patients with idiopathic condylar resorption
Background/purpose
Idiopathic condylar resorption (ICR), a subset of temporomandibular disorders (TMDs), presents an unclear relationship between structural changes in the mandibular condyle and alterations in masticatory muscle perfusion. This study aimed to investigate the correlation between mandibular condyle structural changes and masticatory muscle perfusion in patients with ICR using dynamic contrast-enhanced (DCE) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).
Materials and methods
From July 2018 to August 2022, patients with ICR from hospital-based TMD clinics underwent conventional and DCE MRI examinations. The patients were categorized on the basis of the degree of temporomandibular joint (TMJ) condylar resorption into grade 0 (normal), grade 1 (mild to moderate), and grade 2 (severe). DCE MRI parameters of masticatory muscles responsible for mouth closing (masseter [MA] and medial pterygoid [MP]) and opening (lateral pterygoid [LP]) were examined.
Results
Among 79 patients (158 TMJs), 41 % were assigned to the grade 0 group, 29 % were assigned to the grade 1 group, and 30 % were assigned to the grade 2 group. No significant differences in demographic or physical parameters were observed between the groups. In cases of severe condylar resorption (grade 2), the LP muscle exhibited a marked increase in plasma volume; none of the other muscles exhibited significant variations in plasma volume.
Conclusion
Increased plasma volume perfusion of the LP muscle is correlated with the severity of TMJ condylar resorption, indicating a specific correlation between muscle function and ICR severity. DCE MRI is useful for exploring muscular adaptation in patients with ICR and TMDs.
期刊介绍:
he Journal of Dental Sciences (JDS), published quarterly, is the official and open access publication of the Association for Dental Sciences of the Republic of China (ADS-ROC). The precedent journal of the JDS is the Chinese Dental Journal (CDJ) which had already been covered by MEDLINE in 1988. As the CDJ continued to prove its importance in the region, the ADS-ROC decided to move to the international community by publishing an English journal. Hence, the birth of the JDS in 2006. The JDS is indexed in the SCI Expanded since 2008. It is also indexed in Scopus, and EMCare, ScienceDirect, SIIC Data Bases.
The topics covered by the JDS include all fields of basic and clinical dentistry. Some manuscripts focusing on the study of certain endemic diseases such as dental caries and periodontal diseases in particular regions of any country as well as oral pre-cancers, oral cancers, and oral submucous fibrosis related to betel nut chewing habit are also considered for publication. Besides, the JDS also publishes articles about the efficacy of a new treatment modality on oral verrucous hyperplasia or early oral squamous cell carcinoma.
