The parotid gland body is the most likely salivary gland tissue to have a neoplasm Osteoradionecrosis major factor is damage to the vascular supply Prognosis best for sq cell ca of lower lip compared to osteosarcoma, melanoma, adenocarcinoma osteosarcoma, Most common jaw metastasis site is posterior mandible Onion skin radiograph pattern is also seen in Ewings sarcoma Desquamative gingivitis includes pemphigoid, pemphigoid, pemphigus and erosive lichen planus

Autoimmune diseases more common in women Oncocytoma = parotid swelling (tumor) Gingival hyperplasia drugs such as cyclosporine, nifedipine (Procardia) phenytoin (Dilantin) Malignant jaw lesions destroy the cortical plates of bone Gingival condition with no improvement after two months should be biopsied Dysplasia abnormal maturation of the epithelium

Epithelial Dysplasia

Radiology Facts
X-ray has the shortest wavelength and the highest energy; high voltage has the same characteristics When milliamperage is doubled the intensity of an x-ray beam is doubled x Kilovoltage (kVP) primarily controls contrast and is the penetrating characteristic of an x-ray x X-ray penetration is determined by kVP Focal spot size primarily influences resolution

First sign of damage from acute radiation exposure (4 Gy) is erythema Most radioresistant tissue is nerve and muscle cell; most sensitive is hematopoetic Basic shadow casting principle with the paralleling technique does not fulfill the physics requirement of the distance from the object to the recording surface should be as short as possible
163

The density of processed film is not affected by overfixation but is affected by Increase mA Increase exposure time Decreased object-thickness distance object Decreased target-object distance targetBest i B imaging film for viewing internal derangement of i fil f i i i ld f the TMJ (e.g., articular disc) is an MRI Identify Normal:
Zygomatic process and base; intermaxillary suture Lingual foramen; incisive foramen; genial tubercles Mylohyoid ridge; nutrient canals Inverted Y of Ennis Maxillary sinus Tuberosity; hyoid bone; nose shadow (ant. periapical film) 164 Hard palate; tori; anterior nasal spine; stylohyoid ligament

Intensifying screens are used to decrease exposure time, reduce radiation exposure 8-bit digital image would have 256 shades of gray Complication of radiation treatment in children p does NOT include supernumerary teeth but does include:
Stunted roots Micrognathia Condylar hyperplasia Malocclusion
165

Double the distance from the radiation source then the radiation becomes diminished by a factor of 4 (i.e., inverse square law) Latent period = radiobiology time between exposure and biologic onset of symptoms; not cell exposure and free radical formation Radiograph is rinsed with water to accomplish getting rid of chemicals (not remove emulsion, diminish silver particles, remove latent image) Artifact
Bitewing radiograph with a curved dark line through contact points of adjacent crowns = a break in the166 emulsion from film bending

Collimating an x-ray beam results in an xxincrease of the penetration of x-ray photons Radon is the greatest source of background radiation o ea t ad at o on earth Basic components of an x-ray cathode ray xtube consists of a filament and a focusing cup To change from long scale intensity (low contrast) to short scale intensity (high contrast) but maintain image density, the operator should decrease kVp and increase mAs

Panoramic radiograph with one second of movement by patient results in wavy inferior border of the mandible and unsharp image vertically across the image at that site Major biologic damage from ionizing radiation is primarily due to radiolysis of the water molecules Electrons flow from cathode to anode with the energy converted to heat Recognize MRI and CT films Recognize technical errors Incorrect beam centering (cone cut) Blurring due to patient movement 169

Penumbra the geometric unsharpness with a fuzzy area surrounding the contours of the teeth and osseous tissues An intensifying screen is used with external radiographs to decrease the radiation exposure The oil unit of an x-ray tube housing xfunctions to dissipate heat from the target
