Title: Malignant Lesions in the Dentomaxillofacial Complex. Author: White SM. Journal: Radiol Clin North Am; 2018 Jan; 56(1):63-76. PubMed ID: 29157549. Abstract: Malignancies in the maxillofacial region are rare but comprise a broad spectrum of lesions. Given the potential for malignancies to mimic dental/sinus/temporomandibular joint pathology or remain asymptomatic, the judicious radiologist will be familiar with the initial and unique malignant changes affecting the dentition, periodontium, and supporting osseous structures on conventional film, dental, and sinus imaging. This article is meant to serve as a complement to the many excellent texts dedicated to advanced imaging techniques for the staging of known malignancies. The lesions discussed are a representative sample of malignancies involving hard tissues of the maxillofacial complex but are far from complete.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
