SF 24 - Oral and maxillofacial radiology
Lectures
SF 24 - Overview of salivary gland imaging with an emphasis on sialo-CBCT
19:57C. Nadler, Jerusalem / Israel
Learning Objectives
1. To learn about the sialography indications of salivary gland pathosis.
2. To become familiar with sialography’s role in demonstrating the radiographic features of salivary gland pathosis, computer-aided diagnosis, and creating a unique aid for patient assessment and treatment.
3. To obtain an overview of ultrasound and sialaendoscopy for salivary gland diagnosis and interventional treatment.
SF 24 - Role of imaging in the diagnosis of temporomandibular joint pathology
16:40T. Larheim, Oslo / Norway
Learning Objectives
1. To appreciate normal MRI variations.
2. To become familiar with the most frequent MRI pathology (internal derangement, osteoarthritis, and inflammatory joint diseases).
SF 24 - Oral and pharyngeal swallowing dysfunction among snorers, the elderly, and stroke and head and neck cancer patients
19:26E. Levring Jäghagen, Umea / Sweden
Learning Objectives
1. To learn about the results from studies of oral and pharyngeal swallowing dysfunction, assessed with videofluoroscopy among snorers and patients after stroke and head and neck cancer treatment.
