Instructor
Prof. Takafumi Hayashi (Div. Oral and Maxillofacial Radiology)

【Course outline】
(Oral and Maxillofacial Radiology)
In the field of dental practice, it is mandatory to recognize the image features of pathological status of the oral cavity.
(A) This course provides the typical imaging findings using various diagnostic imaging techniques.
(B) This course provides the advanced diagnostic imaging using various diagnostic imaging techniques.
(Dental Radiology Course Work)
In the field of dental practice, it is essential to recognize the image features of normal anatomy and functions of the oral cavity.
This course provides the basic principles and clinical application of the image analysis of the oral structure and function using various diagnostic imaging techniques.

【Course aim】
(Oral and Maxillofacial Radiology)
(A) In this course, learners are expected to learn the typical imaging findings of various lesions in the maxillofacial region using conventional x-ray, computed tomography (CT), cone-beam CT (CBCT), MR imaging (MRI), ultrasonography (US) and positron emission tomography (PET).
(B) In this course, learners are expected to perform the advanced diagnostic imaging of various lesions in the maxillofacial region using conventional x-ray, computed tomography (CT), cone-beam CT (CBCT), MR imaging (MRI), ultrasonography (US) and positron emission tomography (PET).
(Dental Radiology Course Work)
In this course, learners are expected to learn the basic principles of normal morphological and functional status of the oral structures using conventional x-ray, computed tomography (CT), cone-beam CT (CBCT), MR imaging, ultrasonography and positron emission tomography (PET)/CT.
