Multi-detector row CT (MDCT) | Soft tissue characterization |
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) | The high-grade contrast of soft tissue, dentoalveolar diseases, soft tissue infections, cystic and solid components of dentomaxillofacial tumors, to assess trigeminal nerve terminals |
Positron emission tomography (PET) | Efficient 3D structuring in the temporomandibular joint, condylar hyperplasia, Paget’s disease and bone graft cases |
Ultrasonography (USG) | Thickness of muscles and vessels of the neck region, visualization of vascular lesions and lymph node abnormalities, evaluation of periapical lesions |
