Abstract
This chapter describes the most important benign tumors or tumor-like lesions of the jaw. In general, for these relative rare tumors the experience with bone SPECT/CT is limited and the literature often restricted to case reports. The different lesions are discussed with the focus on their presentation in bone SPECT/CT imaging.
