[Biophysical research on condylar temporomandibular joint growth]
Abstract
On the basis of results obtained from the study of mechanically induced potentials and pulsed 1H-NMR investigations of the condylar cartilage of the TMJ in vitro, the hypothesis is advocated that the internal regulation of condylar growth takes place with the aid of bioelectric signals. Reference in made to the importance of the studies for a future noninvasive diagnosis of condylar growth in the course of functional orthopedic treatment, using "dynamic" magnetic resonance imaging.
