It has been suggested that radiology of the skull and jaw in familial polyposis coli may be a useful marker in up to 90 percent of cases. These x-rays were reviewed independently by a dental surgeon and a neuroradiologist in 51 patients. Only seven patients (14 percent) had significant lesion seen in the context of screening. Each of these patients also had other extracolonic manifestations of familial polyposis coli. The Cleveland Clinic Foundation experience with radiology of the jaw and skull is that it is not a useful screening tool.
