Unilocular Radiolucent Lesions of the Jaws: a Retrospective Panoramic and Cone Beam Computed Tomography Evaluation

Abstract

Background/Aim: The aim of this study was to evaluate and compare the imaging characteristics of common, radiolucent, unilocular, intraosseous lesions of the jaws using both panoramic radiography and cone beam computed tomography (CBCT); also, to evaluate sufficiency of panoramic radiography in determining characteristic features of jaw lesions.
