Comparing the Accuracy of Cone Beam Computed Tomography,Digital Intraoral Radiography and Conventional Intraoral Radiography in the Measurement of Periodontal Bone Defects
Background and Aim: Cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) produces high-quality data in periodontal diagnosis and treatment planning. The aim of this study was to compare the accuracy of CBCT with intraoral digital and conventional radiography in the measurement of periodontal bone defects. Methods and Materials: In this diagnostic research, two hundred and eighteen artificial osseous d...
متن کاملDetection of root perforations using conventional and digital intraoral radiography, multidetector computed tomography and cone beam computed tomography
OBJECTIVES This study aimed to compare the accuracy of conventional intraoral (CI) radiography, photostimulable phosphor (PSP) radiography, cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) and multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) for detection of strip and root perforations in endodontically treated teeth. MATERIALS AND METHODS Mesial and distal roots of 72 recently extracted molar were endodonticall...
متن کاملRadiation exposure during midfacial imaging using 4- and 16-slice computed tomography, cone beam computed tomography systems and conventional radiography.
OBJECTIVES Radiation doses were determined to balance risks against usefulness of the different modalities available for the imaging of the facial skeleton. METHODS An Alderson Rando Phantom, armed with lithium fluoride thermoluminescent dosemeters (TLDs) was exposed using a set of four conventional radiographs (orbital view, modified Waters view, orthopantomography, skull posterior--anterior...
متن کاملCardiac Assist Devices
The Surgical Research Laboratory at Sinai Hospital of Detroit has as its primary goal the development of mechanical and biological technics for augmenting or replacing the function of a damaged heart. Scientific contributions from our group include the development of a cardiac pacemaker, a method for electronic control of bladder evacuation, technics for chronic stimulation of nerves, and a met...
متن کاملVentricular assist devices and non-cardiac surgery
The use of ventricular assist devices has expanded significantly since their approval by the Food and Drug Administration in the United States in 1994. In addition to this, the prevalence of heart failure continues to increase. We aim to provide an overview of perioperative considerations and management of these patients for non-cardiac surgery. We performed a Medline search for the words "vent...
