    Abstract:
    Generally, CT and MR images of antiresorptive agent-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (ARONJ)/medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ) show nonspecific findings as seen in active osteomyelitis.However, there are some characteristics as follows; unilateral maxillary sinusitis adjacent to ipsilateral maxillary ARONJ/MRONJ, DRONJ presenting larger sequestrum and periosteal reaction more frequently than BRONJ, BRONJ resulting from intravenous administration of the drug presenting larger and more frequent buccolingual cortical bone perforations than BRONJ from oral administration, and better diagnostic accuracy of extent of perilesional soft tissue inflammation on MR imaging than CT. The CT and MR imaging features of ARONJ/MRONJ are summarized in this report.
