Ambiguities in diagnoses can often be resolved when images from different imaging modalities are compared, and when images are processed with algorithms that improve resolution and contrast. Bayesean deblurring algorithms were developed and applied to Planar and SPECT images of the maxillofacial and temporomandibular joint regions. The combined use of Planar and SPECT imaging with Bayesean deblurring were complementary and provided more diagnostic information than either modality individually. A facial imaging protocol using Planar and SPECT imaging and Bayesean deblurring is described. SPECT maxillofacial anatomy is presented, as well as the application of the imaging protocol of craniomandibular dysfunction. Although not recommended for all patients with craniomandibular disorders, combined use of Planar and SPECT images and Bayesean deblurring techniques appears to be useful in diagnostically difficult or refractory cases.
