Area of Science:

  • Dentistry
  • Radiology
  • Anatomy

Background:

  • Computed CT (computed tomography) imaging offers detailed surface renderings of complex dental and bony structures.
  • Accurate anatomical identification is crucial for diagnosing and reporting pathologies in the maxillofacial region.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To provide a user-friendly reference for labeling dental and bony landmarks.
  • To illustrate the adjacent muscular and neurovascular anatomy relevant to the maxilla, mandible, and palatine bones.
  • To enhance radiologists' understanding and description of lesions in this complex area.

Main Methods:

  • Utilized computed CT image protocols for detailed anatomical illustration.
  • Focused on surface renderings of the maxilla, mandible, and palatine bones.

  • Included adjacent muscular and neurovascular structures.

    • Main Results:

    • Detailed surface renderings of dental and bony anatomy were produced.
    • Key dental and bony landmarks were identified.
    • Relevant adjacent soft tissue anatomy was illustrated.

    Conclusions:

    • This reference improves the radiologist's ability to understand and precisely describe lesions.
    • Facilitates better communication between radiologists and clinicians regarding maxillofacial pathologies.
