Abstract
PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the cone-beam computed tomographic (CBCT) imaging and histopathological characteristics of osteoradionecrosis (ORN) and medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ). MATERIALS AND METHODS: value less than 0.05 was considered to indicate statistical significance. RESULTS: <0.05). CONCLUSION: This study evaluated the CBCT imaging and histopathological characteristics of ORN and MRONJ, and the findings suggest that CBCT could be useful for the evaluation of ORN and MRONJ.
