[Imaging protocol in salivary pathology].
Numerous techniques have been used for imaging salivary glands including standard radiography, scintigraphy, sialography, echography, computed tomography and finally NMI. These different techniques each have their own indications or complementary role. We therefore developed a protocol for using the different imaging techniques according to the different salivary pathologies encountered. This protocol is given as an examination flow chart to be used in light of clinical findings. A large number of images selected by P. Laudenbach illustrate the typical pathologies encountered. Special emphasis is placed on sialography, an important imaging technique, unfortunately somewhat neglected.
