Morphological Study of the Mandibular Lingula and Antilingula by Cone-Beam Computed Tomography
Bioengineering, 2023 The patterns of the lingula and antilingula are crucial surgical reference points for ramus osteotomy. Cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) provides three-dimensional images, and patient radiation dose is significantly lower for CBCT than for medical CT.
