32 patients with osseous destruction of the mandible were examined sonographically. The results were compared with those of plain radiographs. In 30 patients, discontinuation of the cortex was clearly evident. Sonography could detect osteolytic lesions in the corpus region, in the angle and on the buccal side of the rami of the mandible. 2 cases of osteodestruction on the lingual side could not be seen.
