Space occupying lesions of parotid gland. Comparative diagnostic imaging and pathological analysis of echo color/power Doppler and of magnetic resonance imaging.

Aim of the study was to evaluate the role of echo color/power Doppler and magnetic resonance imaging in the diagnosis of space occupying parotid lesions, in the attempt to establish criteria for differential diagnosis between benign and malignant types. The study population comprised 49 patients (23 male, 26 female), age range 30-85 years, with a space occupying lesion of the parotid gland. Each lesion was carefully studied with ultrasound integrated with colour/power doppler and magnetic resonance imaging; patients were then submitted to echo-guided needle-biopsy and surgical excision.

[Benign tumors and pseudotumors of temporo-mandibular joint: radiologic aspects].

Benign tumors and tumor-like lesions that involve temporo mandibular joint are very rare. Those more frequent are osteochondroma, chondroma, osteoma, pigmented villonodular synovitis and synovial chondromatosis. The Authors report six cases of patients affected by these pathologies in which imaging, such as TC, MRI and/or ortopantomography have been useful to have a diagnosis.
