We make the assumption that the dimension is greater or equal to 3 and that $P$ has no $L^2$ null space and no resonance at 0. In particular, we show that the Schwartz kernel of $R(k)$ is a conormal polyhomogeneous distribution on a desingularized version of $M\times M\times [0,1]$. Using this, we show that the Riesz transform of $P$ is bounded on $L^p$ for $
