• The following chapters should be read with an aim to develop an understanding of the key radiologic features of conditions including cystic, fibro-osseous, benign tumours, malignant tumours and other conditions affecting the jaws. The aim is to develop a general understanding of the plain film radiologic features of these groups of lesions but not necessarily the specific lesion. CT and MRI features can be ignored. For example, a general appreciation of the typical features of benign tumour demonstrated in an intraoral or panoramic radiograph is important but the candidate is not expected to differentiate between an odontogenic myxoma and an ameloblastoma nor understand the CT and MRI features.

Examination

Core

• This examination on the panoramic and intraoral radiograph will focus on radiologic anatomy, imaging limitations and artefacts as well as the identification of abnormalities in these views.
• 50 minute short answer written format.
• For each question, a power point slide will be displayed and the question will require evaluation of the radiologic image presented. The length of time a corresponding slide will be displayed will vary. Candidates will not have the opportunity to review a particular slide beyond the time allocated for that slide.

Advanced

• This examination on the panoramic and intraoral radiographs will focus on the interpretation of jaw pathoses. The prescription of other imaging techniques based upon 2D radiographic findings may be also be examined. Radiologic anatomy, imaging limitations and artefacts as well as the identification of abnormalities in these views may also be included.

• For each question, a power point slide will be displayed and the question will require evaluation of the radiologic image presented.
