Abstract

Clinical examination of Craniorofacial injuries are often limited in patients with trauma to the head and neck region due to obscuration by overlying edema, hematoma, hemorrhage, and soft-tissue injury. Craniorofacial injuries require accurate and prompt diagnosis for management. For Proper clinical examination and treatment plan, high resolution radiographs are always essential which will indirectly contribute to render a good medical care to the patients.
