Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Evaluation of diagnostic value of the dynamic PET/MR in regard to determine correct extention and activity of osteomyelities/necrosis of the jaw. Correlation with histopathological data after surgery (gold standard).
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
- Comparism of data from patients receiving bisphosphonate/denosumab therapy or showing osteoradionecrosis to identify pathophysiological differences. - Analysis of functional and metabolic parameters relating to time and cost reduction of diagnostic procedures. - Evaluation of PET/MR data relating to prognostic information for further clinical follow-up.
