The Effect of Hydroalcoholic Extract of Flaxseed on Bone Mineral Density in Wistar Rats using Digital Radiography
Background: Given that the world's population is aging, the problems associated with osteoporosis and related fractures are increasing. The aim of the study was to evaluate the effect of flaxseed extract on bone mineral density (BMD) in Wistar rats using digital radiography. Methods: In this experimental study, 25 male and 25 female Wistar rats were randomly divided into 5 groups: 1. Control...
متن کاملEvaluation of Gonadal Exposure Dose in Long Bone Plain Radiography for Radiation Protection
Introduction: Long bone examination in standing position, as one of the diagnostic methods in plain radiography, is most commonly used in the field of medical diagnosis, especially leg length discrepancy. However, with regard to this examination, reproductive organs are exposed to radiation as they are placed in the adjacent area to the long bone. Due to the sensitivit...
متن کاملDigital Tomosynthesis for PNS Evaluation: Comparisons of Patient Exposure and Image Quality with Plain Radiography
OBJECTIVE We investigated low dose digital tomosynthesis (DT) for the evaluation of the paranasal sinus (PNS), and compared its diagnostic accuracy with a PNS radiography series (XR). MATERIALS AND METHODS We enrolled 43 patients for whom XR, PNS DT, and OMU CT were performed. We measured effective doses (EDs) of XR, DT, and OMU CT using Monte Carlo simulation software. Two radiologists perfo...
متن کاملEvaluation of Image Magnification in Digital Panoramic Radiography
Introdouction: The aim of the present study was to investigate image magnification in digital panoramic radiography and assess the effect of anatomical sites on the magnification in both males and females. Materials and methods: In this retrospective study, digital panoramic radiographs of 48 patients with 202 implants were investigated. Implant diameter and length were measured on pan...
متن کاملEffective Dose Evaluation of Critical Organes in Digital Radiography Exames
Background and Aim: Due to the increasing number of radiographic tests, TLD dosimeters can be used to measure the effective dose of critical organs in various radiographic tests. In this research, the progression of analogue to digital radiology devices, which facilitates and accelerates the performance of radiographs, especially emergency patients, was investigated, and then the effective dose...
