Correlation of Radiographic Size and the Presence of Radiopaque Lamina With Histological Findings in 70 Periapical Lesions

Most of the apical lesions were granulomas. Cysts had the largest radiotransparent images; however, in the 70 cases studied, neither the radiographic size nor the presence of associated radiopaque lamina alone was sufficient to determine the type of lesion. Histological analysis is required.
