High resolution computed tomography: Part 4, Evaluation of odontogenic lesions.

High resolution computed tomography (CT) has been a mainstay in the preoperative evaluation of odontogenic lesions. Unsurpassed bony detail is complemented by exquisite delineation of the soft tissue mass itself. Our experience with these lesions is presented. Selected illustrations are supplemented by pathologic review.

High-resolution computed tomography: Part 5. Evaluation of the temporomandibular joint.

High-resolution computed tomography (CT) is evolving as the most valuable radiographic study when detailed information about the status of the temporomandibular joint is needed. High-resolution CT is faster, less invasive, and in most cases much more accurate than other imaging modalities used in the past. Erosive, hypertrophic, and ankylosing arthropathies are illustrated, as are condylar dislocations secondary to acute trauma, chronic trauma, and neoplasm. A detailed discussion of the common problem of the anterior displaced meniscus is undertaken.

The foramen ovale. MR and CT correlation.

Six patients with lesions involving the foramen ovale are presented and analyzed. Anatomy, pathology and imaging of diseases occurring in the vicinity of the foramen ovale are reviewed. Computerized tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are complimentary in the evaluation of pathology in this region. CT is better able to evaluate bony detail while MR imaging is useful in detailing the anatomical extent and tissue characteristics.

Radionuclide esophageal and intestinal transit scintigraphy in patients undergoing radiation therapy.

Radiation esophagitis and enteritis are common and significant side effects of radiation therapy. Non-invasive assessment of functional and/or anatomic changes responsible for the symptoms produced by radiation esophagitis and enteritis has been unsatisfactory. This paper demonstrates the value of radionuclide esophageal and intestinal transit scintigraphy in patients undergoing mediastinal or abdominal radiation.
