Carotid artery disease has been linked with cerebral vascular accident, also known as stroke, cerebral hemorrhage, or cerebral ischemia. It is caused by narrowing or obstruction of arteries in the neck (the carotid arteries) that are responsible for transporting blood from the aorta to the brain. Panoramic radiographs are used in dentistry to show both dental arches as a supplement to the clinical dental examination. The objective of this study is to highlight the importance of panoramic radiographs for diagnosis of arterial disease, by means of a bibliographic review. The PubMed database was searched using the keywords "atherosclerosis" and "panoramic", with the filters "last 5 years" and "humans". Twenty articles were identified, six of which were chosen for this study because they were open access. The review concluded that panoramic radiographs enable early diagnosis of carotid artery calcification, resulting in earlier interventions, and offer an accessible cost.
颈动脉疾病与脑血管意外有关，脑血管意外也被称为中风、脑出血或脑缺血。它是由颈部动脉（颈动脉）变窄或阻塞引起的，这些动脉负责将血液从主动脉输送到大脑。牙科全景X线片用于显示两个牙弓，作为临床牙科检查的补充。本研究的目的是通过文献综述强调全景X线片在动脉疾病诊断中的重要性。使用关键词“动脉粥样硬化”和“全景”在PubMed数据库中进行搜索，并设置“最近5年”和“人类”的筛选条件。共识别出20篇文章，其中6篇因其为开放获取而被选入本研究。综述得出结论，全景X线片能够早期诊断颈动脉钙化，从而实现更早的干预，并且成本低廉。
