Question: 1 / 1180

What is a traumatic bone cyst typically described as on a radiograph?

Dense and calcified lesion

Hyperlucent with scattered calcifications

Scalloped around roots radiolucent lesion

A Dense and calcified lesion - This is incorrect because a traumatic bone cyst is not typically described as dense or calcified. On a radiograph, it often appears radiolucent with scalloping around the roots of adjacent teeth.

B: Hyperlucent with scattered calcifications - This is also incorrect because while a traumatic bone cyst may have some calcifications, it is not typically hyperlucent. It is typically more radiolucent in appearance.

D: Uniformly radiopaque - This option is incorrect because a traumatic bone cyst is not uniformly radiopaque. A radiolucent lesion with scalloping around the roots is more commonly seen.
