| dc.description.abstract | İntroduction: In dentistry, multiple imaging methods are used for diagnosis and treatment planning. Objective: The aim of this study is to determine the expectations and preferences of final-year dental students, dentists, and dental specialists regarding the style and content of maxillofacial radiology reports in order to improve the quality of such reports. Method: A multiple-choice survey consisting of nine questions has been prepared. A total of 168 general dentists and specialists working in university hospitals or state hospitals were divided into six groups based on whether they were specialists, final-year dental students, or clinicians and their work experience. The survey was administered to participants through face-to-face interviews. The results were analyzed for each group using Pearson's chisquare test and Fisher's exact test. Results: Except for the third and ninth questions related to the identification of image artifacts and measurements on images for implant planning, no statistically significant differences were found between the six groups. Clinicians with at least 10 years of experience preferred more detailed radiological reports regarding image artifacts (p<0.05). Dentists with less than 10 years of experience preferred printed measurements on images for implant planning (p<0.05). There were also differences in the preferred imaging techniques that should be reported. Conclusion: It has been determined that dentists and specialists prefer detailed, standardized radiology reports that include clinical information (especially localization, internal structure, lesion size, and relationship to anatomical landmarks), technical information, findings, conclusions, and recommendations for further imaging techniques. This study has provided important data for maxillofacial radiologists to write more effective reports | |
