We extend a result of Matucci on the number of conjugacy classes of finite order elements in the Thompson group $T$. According to Liousse, if $ gcd(m-1,q)$ is not a divisor of $r$ then there does not exist element of order $q$ in the Brown-Thompson group $T_{r,m}$. We show that if $ gcd(m-1,q)$ is a divisor of $r$ then there are exactly $\varphi(q). gcd(m-1,q)$ conjugacy classes of elements of order $q$ in $T_{r,m}$, where $\varphi$ is the Euler function phi. As a corollary, we obtain that the Thompson group $T$ is isomorphic to none of the groups $T_{r,m}$, for $m\not=2$ and any morphism from $T$ into $T_{r,m}$, with $m\not=2$ and $r\not= 0$ $mod \ (m-1)$, is trivial.
