Abstract

Objective: To assess the parotid gland in diabetic patients clinically and by using magnetic resonance imaging. Methods: 20 subjects (10 volunteers and 10 diabetic patients) were examined clinically to detect the presence of xerostomia and badoral hygiene. Salivary flow ratethen, was measured for all subjects to assess the gland function. Finally, axial and coronal MR-T1WIs were acquired followed by MRsialographyfor the left parotid gland. Results: The diabetic group showed statistically significant higher prevalence of xerostomia andbad oral hygiene than the control group (P-value = 0.001; 0.006respectively). The salivary flow rate of the control group showed statistically significant higher mean values in both the pre- and post-stimulation states(P-values = 0.027; 0.001 respectively) than the diabetic group. The ductal changes in the diabetic group showed statistically significant higher prevalence of ductal changes than the control group (P-value = 0.025). As well, the diabetic group showed statistically significant higher prevalence of enlargement (P-value = 0.001) and statistically significant higher prevalence of parenchymal changes (P-value = 0.019) than the control group Conclusion Diabetes mellitus may cause the hypofunction of the salivary glands and the MRI and MR sialography may be valuable techniques in the examination of the structure and ductal morphology of the salivary glands of diabetic patients.
