Tests Details :
CT – Mandible is a specialized imaging procedure that uses computed tomography (CT) to obtain high-resolution cross-sectional images of the lower jawbone (mandible) and surrounding structures.
This scan provides detailed visualization of the mandible, teeth alignment, jaw joints, and adjacent soft tissues. It is particularly useful in assessing fractures, bone lesions, infections, tumors, and congenital abnormalities. In some cases, contrast dye may be used to enhance visualization of soft tissue involvement or suspected lesions.
CT Mandible is commonly used in cases of facial trauma, jaw pain, swelling, dental or orthodontic evaluation, and pre-surgical planning, including reconstructive or implant procedures.
The procedure is quick, non-invasive, and offers precise anatomical detail, making it highly valuable for accurate diagnosis and treatment planning in maxillofacial conditions.
The purpose of CT Mandible Scan is to evaluate the lower jaw and surrounding structures.
It helps to:
- Detect fractures or injuries to the mandible
- Identify tumors or abnormal growths
- Evaluate infections or bone lesions
- Assess jaw alignment and structure
- Assist in dental or surgical planning
- Evaluate causes of jaw pain or swelling
