CBCT Variants of Sinonasal Cavity: What Oral and Maxillofacial Radiologists Need to Know

Journal Title: International Journal of Dentistry and Oral Science (IJDOS) - Year 2016, Vol 3, Issue 8

Abstract

This educational review highlighted the common sinonasal variations with reference to their clinical implications. Some variations can appear as well-demarcated radiolucency on routine imaging leading to a possible misdiagnosis of abnormality. This necessitates oral and maxillofacial radiologists to get accustomed to the sinonasal anatomy. The CBCT report should include not only details about the area of interest but also information about the anatomical variants and their implications. However, the presenceof variants does not constitute a pathologic condition per se.
