Imaging of cystic lesions of the jaws - Pictorial essay
Journal Title: Journal of Medical and Scientific Research - Year 2018, Vol 6, Issue 1
Abstract
Imaging of the cystic lesions of the jaws has progressed from plain radiography, orthopantomography to cone beam computed tomography. These advanced methods contribute to the diagnosis of the cystic lesions of the jaws correlating well with histological features. Clinically, swelling and pain are the major features. Cystic lesions are more common in the mandible and odontogenic cysts are frequently encountered as compared with non-odontogenic cysts. Imaging features are described to differentiate one cyst from the other. Cyst like or pseudo cystic lesions are also described and illustrated.
