Description

<p>Dr. Wilhelm Conrad Röntgen discovered X‐rays in 1895, and they have been used in dentistry ever since. The first oral radiology textbook in Japan, titled “Dental Roentgenology," was published by Goichi Fujinami and Noboru Teruuchi. Oral radiology has a history of over 100 years in Japan and over 100 books have been published on the subject. However, there have been few studies about books on oral radiology, which is often referred as “Dental Roentgenology." We compiled a list of books on oral radiology in Japan. We also compared to the contents of “Dental Roentgenology" and “Oral and Maxillofacial Radiology", which is the most popular textbook in Japan for describing the use of radiology in dentistry and for teaching oral radiology. 124 books on oral radiology have been published in Japan. Although there were differences between “Dental Roentgenology" and “Oral and Maxillofacial Radiology," the image quality of intra‐oral imaging is almost the same. Radiological equipment has recently made rapid progress and oral radiology has made great strides in diagnostic imaging, radiation protection, radiation oncology and biology. Oral radiology progressed to cover soft tissues of the head and neck as well as hard tissues, including the teeth and jaw bones. Shika Igaku (J Osaka Odontol Soc) 2019; September; 82(2):63‐71.</p>
