  • Title: Radiographical approach to jaw lesions.
    Author: Neyaz Z, Gadodia A, Gamanagatti S, Mukhopadhyay S.
    Journal: Singapore Med J; 2008 Feb; 49(2):165-76; quiz 177. PubMed ID: 18301848.
    Abstract:
    Many lesions that occur in the jaw have a similar radiographical appearance and it is often difficult to differentiate among them. Despite development of various cross-sectional imaging modalities, the radiograph still remains the first and the most important investigation. Radiographical evaluation of jaw lesion characteristics, which include location, margin, density, relation to tooth, along with knowledge of the clinical data, generally helps in narrowing the differential diagnosis.
