Figure 7

Graph showing the relationship between the change in the detection rate on panoramic radiographs and the major axis length of SOLs in the maxillary sinus. The X-axis is the major axis length of SOLs in the maxillary sinus. The Y-axis is the detection rate of SOLs in the maxillary sinus on panoramic radiographs. With decreases of the major axis length of SOLs in the maxillary sinus, the detection rate of SOLs on panoramic radiographs decreases gradually. If the major axis length of SOLs is <4 mm, the detection rate of SOLs on panoramic radiographs decreases significantly (arrow).
