tooth shaped from injury or what have you.  And like I said 9 times out of 10, odontoid refers to the "toothlike odontoid process in the second cervical vertebra."  That's pretty specific, dontcha think?  I've never heard a doctor refer to an "odontoid" in any other part of the body.

Page 194 in Stedman's Radiology book is concha bullosa or pleural form is conchae bullosa....


Also found this out...


Concha Bullosa
A concha bullosa (CB) is a common anatomical variation that occurs when an air pocket forms in the middle turbinate.

On a CT scan, a concha bullosa looks almost like a small balloon with a thin, bony lining. If you develop this condition, you may be symptom-free, or you may have facial pain and pressure and nasal blockage. A concha bullosa is easily corrected with endoscopic sinus surgery.
Hope this helps!!!
