Evaluation of Radiomorphometric Indices in Panoramic Radiograph – A Screening Tool
BACKGROUND Mandibular cortical indices, like the mandibular cortical index (MCI), panoramic mandibular index (PMI), mental index (MI), antegonial index (AI) and gonial index (GI) have been developed to assess and quantify the quality of mandibular bone mass. Aim and Objectives : The aim of this pilot study was to measure the radiomorphometric indices in a digital panoramic radiograph and find t...
متن کاملPanoramic Radiomorphometric Indices of the Mandible in an Iranian Population
Abstract Objectives: Radiomorphometric indices measured on simple radiographic images can be used for qualitative and quantitative assessment of bone. Panoramic radiographic imaging can therefore assist dentists in early detection of osteoporosis in patients. Considering the effect of ethnic and environmental factors on development of osteoporosis and absence of normal values of radiomorphom...
متن کاملPanoramic radiomorphometric indices as reliable parameters in predicting osteoporosis.
BACKGROUND The purpose was to evaluate the significance of panoramic radiomorphometric indices (mandibular cortical index [MCI], mental index [MI] and panoramic mandibular index [PMI]) as useful tools for identifying osteoporosis. METHODS One hundred healthy women aged ≥ 30 years were included. Digital panoramic images and bone mineral density (BMD) of the lumbar spines were recorded. Radiomo...
متن کاملAssessment of Panoramic Radiomorphometric Indices of the Mandible in a Brazilian Population
The aim of this study was to evaluate radiomorphometric indices in dental panoramic radiographs in order to identify possible interrelationships between these indices and the sex and age of the patients analyzed. The study included 1287 digital panoramic radiographic images of patients that were grouped into five age groups (1 = age 17-20; 2 = age 21-35; 3 = age 36-55; 4 = age 56-69; 5 = over a...
متن کاملPanoramic radiograph in pathology.
The panoramic radiograph is an excellent extraoral radiograph to reveal abnormalities and pathologic conditions of the jaws and to show calcification of adjacent soft tissue. A single panoramic radiograph provides a significant image of the maxillofacial skeleton and dentition and often is used as a survey or screening film because of the area it covers. The panoramic radiograph does not provid...
