title: [Roentgen diagnosis of mandibular fractures. Studies of the macerated skull].
abstract: Useful radiographic positions for the roentgen diagnosis of fractures of the mandible are described and discussed. The outstanding value of orthopantomography for the entire mandible is stressed. Alternative methods are described and evaluated. A special effort is made to demonstrate the mandibular head and neck. The radiation dose required for the various mandibular views is given and a comparison is made.
