Abstract:
We investigated the possibilities of sonographic diagnostics of bone fractures in a clinical study. 18 patients with fractures of the lower jaw were examined. The technical procedure and typical symptoms are described. The sonographic analysis shows fractures with dislocations greater than 1 mm. Today it is not possible yet to exclude a fracture by sonographic diagnosis alone.
