Question: 1 / 400

Which type of structure is the Maxillary Sinus in radiology practice?

Radiolucent

Explanation

The Maxillary Sinus is a radiolucent structure in radiology practice. This means that it appears dark or black on a radiograph. This is because it contains air and is not dense enough to block the passage of x-rays. Option B, radiopaque, would indicate a structure that appears white or opaque on a radiograph due to its high density that blocks the passage of x-rays. Option C is incorrect because the Maxillary Sinus is not both radiolucent and radiopaque. Option D is also incorrect because the Maxillary Sinus does have a specific structure classification as being radiolucent.
