title: [Potentials of orthopantomography in the diagnosis of the late stages of cancer of the maxilla].
abstract: X-ray investigation was performed in 51 patients with maxillary cancer grades III to IV and the diagnostic capacities of orthopantomography were assessed in juxtaposition to other conventional X-ray techniques (tomography and various projection x-rays). Analysis of the data suggests that the technique is of major diagnostic importance. Its broad introduction will allow to reduce the number of x-ray investigations without losses in diagnostic information.
