A further property of the operating table top is radiolucency.

It appears as a large oval radiolucency reminiscent of an American football.

Radiographically, it may often appear as a heart-shaped radiolucency.

On radiographs, it presents as a radiolucency (dark area) between the teeth in a triangular shape.

On radiographs, it appears a radiolucency (dark area) around the apex of a tooth's root.

On radiographs, it can appear as a unilocular or multilocular radiolucency (dark area).

Tongues of radiolucency often protrude from the metaphyses into the bone shaft.

Radiographically it appears as an ill defined radiolucency and toothbuds appear to be "floating".

It appears as a poorly defined radiolucency (dark area) where there was a previous history of an extraction of a tooth.

On radiographs, it appears as a radiolucency (dark area) and is known for sometimes having small radiopacities (white areas) within it.

The main radiographic features of generalized osteoporosis are cortical thinning and increased radiolucency.

Radiolucency indicates greater transparency or "transradiancy" to X-ray photons.

Unilocular radiolucency may be seen.

It exhibits as an "inverted pear-shaped radiolucency" on radiographs, or X-ray films.

This results in an increased radiolucency on X-ray, a reduction in lung markings and depression of the diaphragm.

On radiographs, the calcifying odontogenic cyst appears as a unilocular radiolucency (dark area).

It appears on radiographs as a well-circumscribed radiolucency (dark area), and it commonly scallops between the roots of teeth.

Radiographically it presents with either radiolucency or mixed radiolucency/opaque.

On radiographs, the adenomatoid odontogenic tumor presents as a radiolucency (dark area) around an unerupted tooth extending past the cementoenamel junction.

Usually, there is no pain associated with it, and it usually appears as a unilocular radiolucency (dark area) on the side of a canine or premolar root.

In summary, important aspects to be included considered are the position in the room, radiolucency (carbon fiber tabletop), compatibility, and integration of imaging devices with the operating table.

Additionally, it has been proven that a positive correlation exists between the number of bacteria in an infected root canal and the size of the resultant periradicular radiolucency.

It should be differentially diagnosed from a dentigerous cyst and the main difference is that the radiolucency in case of AOT extends apically beyond the cementoenamel junction.

Typically, radiographs show rachitic deformities and characteristic bony defects near the ends of major long bones (i.e. "tongues" of radiolucency projecting from the rachitic growth plate into the metaphsysis).

Late radiographic signs also include a radiolucency area following the collapse of subchondral bone (crescent sign) and ringed regions of radiodensity resulting from saponification and calcification of marrow fat following medullary infarcts.
