Description
This presentation is an interactive and comprehensive update in 2D and 3D CBCT radiographic interpretation. It focuses on the importance of developing an analytical strategy to systematically review different types of dental images. The importance of “pattern recognition” to differentiate between different jaw pathologies; inflammatory, benign, malignant and fibrou-osseous lesions with clinical cases will be discussed. An overview of possible differential diagnosis for paranasal sinuses opacifications and head and neck soft tissue calcifications are reviewed.
Upon completion of this presentation, participants should be able to: 1) review the most common radiographic presentations of malignant lesions in 2D and 3D; 2) develop a step by step analytic strategy to evaluate each radiographic abnormality; 3) describe the value of 3D CBCT in assessing head and neck abnormalities; and 4) discuss best practices regarding following up radiographic abnormalities from the need to watch and wait, treat, biopsy and specialist referral.
