Summary

Medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ) is a known complication of antiresorptive therapies such as bisphosphonates and denosumab. It can lead to bone damage in the jaw, with variable clinical outcomes depending on disease stage and management.

Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) is currently recommended for diagnosis and follow-up of MRONJ. However, most studies rely on qualitative or descriptive imaging findings, and little is known about how bone quality evolves over time using quantitative imaging parameters.

This retrospective multicenter study aims to describe the evolution of bone quality in patients with MRONJ using CBCT imaging. Bone parameters such as bone mineral density and trabecular structure will be measured at diagnosis and during follow-up.

The study will help improve understanding of bone changes over time in MRONJ and may contribute to better assessment and management of the disease.

Conditions

  • Medication-related Osteonecrosis of the Jaw
  • Osteonecrosis of the Jaw

Interventions

DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

Cone Beam Computed Tomography Imaging

Cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) imaging is used to assess bone mineral density, trabecular structure, and morphometric characteristics of the jaw in patients with medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw. Imaging data are retrospectively analyzed without any additional procedure performed for research purposes.
