Techniques, Tricks, and Stratagems of Oral Cavity Computed Tomography and Magnetic Resonance Imaging

The oral cavity constitutes a complex anatomical area that can be affected by many developmental, inflammatory, and tumoural diseases. MultiSlice Computed Tomography (MSCT) Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) currently represent the essential complementary imaging techniques for detecting abnormalities. Advanced MRI with diffusion-weighted (DWI) dynamic contrast-enhanced perfusion-weighted (DCE-PWI) has recently increased ability to characterise lesions distinguish disease recurrences from post therapy changes. analysis of via is also complicated both mutual close appositions different mucosal surfaces metal artifacts dental materials. Nevertheless, an exact identification made possible thanks manoeuvres specific stratagems applicable on MSCT acquisitions. This study summarises available diseases, particular attention role DWI, DCE-PWI, manoeuvres. We propose acquisition protocols accurate area.
