Oral Radiology, Oral Medicine and Pathology: Booster Shot - Thursday, October 6. 2022

Category 1 - 3 CE Points

Speakers:  Dr. Kristina Perschbacher &  Dr. Susanne Perschbacher

Course Description:

Are you due for a booster? This lecture is a case-based refresher of clinically-relevant pathology that is not encountered by clinicians on a daily basis and therefore may pose a diagnostic challenge. The key features that help identify the interpretation or diagnosis of an abnormality are presented. Classic and atypical cases will be contrasted and “red-flag” features will be highlighted. Boost your recognition and understanding of oral squamous cell carcinoma associated precursor lesions. Management will be discussed where appropriate.

Learning objectives:

- analyze key features for diagnosis of soft tissue and radiologic lesions

- compare common presentations and variants

- recognize features suggestive of aggressive disease

- identify lesions at risk for transformation to squamous cell carcinoma
