Abstract
A través del presente proyecto se ha creado un fichero de imágenes radiográficas mixtas (radiopacas-radiolucidas) que serán utilizadas por los alumnos del tercer curso de Grado de la asignatura Medicina Bucal a fin de mejorar la enseñanza práctica del apartado lesiones radiográficas de los maxilares. Dichos ficheros se incorporarán al Campus Virtual para que el alumno pueda hacer uso de ellos.
La elaboración de un fichero de estas características ha exigido en primer lugar la selección de las imágenes radiográficas mixtas de los maxilares más representativas. Se han seleccionado 43 imágenes radiográficas mixtas que se han clasificado en “Mixed Radiolucent-Radiopaque periapical lesions” (15 imágenes), “Mixed Radiolucent-Radiopaque pericoronal lesions” (8 imágenes) y “Mixed Radiolucent-Radiopaque lesions not necessarily contacting teeth“ ( 20 imágenes). Se han realizado 4 flowchart (el tercer grupo se subdividió en dos) para esquematizar las lesiones mixtas más frecuentes con sus características clínicas y radiográficas más habituales. Dichos flowchart ayudarán al alumno a poder llegar al diagnóstico de las lesiones de los casos clínicos seleccionados, cuya historia clínica también se ha reflejado.
Todo el trabajo se ha realizado en dos idiomas inglés y español, que ayudará a los alumnos a aprender el vocabulario en inglés relacionado con el tema. Además, facilitará la comprensión de los alumnos de otras nacionalidades que pueden acudir a nuestra facultad y ayudará a los alumnos de la UCM que acuden a otras universidades Europeas o Americanas.
Through this project we have created a file of mixed radiographic images (radiopaque-radiolucent) that will be used by third year dental school students in the Oral Medicine class, in order to aid in the clinical learning of radiographic lesions of the jaws. These files will be added to the Virtual Campus platform, so that each student can make use of them. In order to make each file, we have followed certain characteristics in the selection of the most representative mixed radiographic images of the jaw. We selected 43 mixed radiographic images that we divided into the following: “Mixed Radiolucent-Radiopaque periapical lesions” (15 images), “Mixed Radiolucent-Radiopaque pericoronal lesions” (8 images), and “mixed Radiolucent-Radiopaque lesions not necessarily contacting teeth“ ( 20 images). We made 4 flowcharts (the third group was subdivided in two other groups) in order to summarize the most common clinical and radiographic characteristics of mixed lesions. These flowcharts, along with the clinical history, will aid the student to get to a correct diagnosis of the lesions selected. This project has been done in two languages (english and spanish) to help the students learn the proper english vocabulary related to this subject. It will also assist in the comprehension of students of different nationalities that could come to our School of Dentistry, and would help UCM students going to other European or American universities.
