Official Title: Bisphosphonate-Associated Jaw Osteonecrosis and PET Imaging

Brief Summary:

  1. Bisphosphonate-associated osteonecrosis of the jaw(ONJ)is detectable by positron emission tomography(PET).
  2. Bisphosphonate-associated ONJ can be diagnosed and characteristically differentiated from other bony pathologies of the jaw(osteomyelitis, osteolytic lesions, and osteoradionecrosis)by PET imaging.
