Near-infrared imaging of demineralization under sealants.
Previous studies have shown that near-infrared (NIR) reflectance and transillumination imaging can be used to acquire high contrast images of early caries lesions and composite restorative materials. The aim of the study was to determine the optimum NIR wavelengths for imaging demineralized areas under dental sealants. Fifteen natural human premolars and molars with occlusal lesions were used i...
متن کاملMedical near-infrared imaging
The use of near-infrared light in functional medical imaging has gained increasing interest during recent years. Techniques using near-infrared light for imaging can be used to study, e.g., hemodynamic responses on the cortex. Brain activation measurements can be performed using, e.g., MEG or fMRI, which, however, require heavy instrumentation. In medical near-infrared imaging, the instrumentat...
متن کاملI. Near-infrared imaging
As a prerequisite for cosmological studies using adaptive optics techniques, we have begun to identify and characterize faint sources in the vicinity of bright stars at high Galactic latitudes. The initial phase of this work has been a program of Ks imaging conducted with SOFI at the ESO NTT. From observations of 42 southern fields evenly divided between the spring and autumn skies, we have ide...
متن کاملPotential inhibition of demineralization in vitro by fluoride-releasing sealants.
BACKGROUND The incorporation of fluoride into sealants has been viewed as a viable way to prevent pit-and-fissure caries by potential inhibition of demineralization through the release of fluoride to enamel. The authors conducted a study to examine the effect of a recently introduced fluoride-releasing sealant (ProSeal, Reliance Orthodontic Products, Itasca, Ill.) on enamel demineralization in ...
متن کاملThe appearance of dural sealants under MR imaging.
Dural sealants are an adjunct to obtain watertight closure after intradural procedures. This study aims to characterize the appearance on MR imaging of 3 commonly employed dural sealants: fibrin glue, PEGH, and BSAG. To this end, patients who underwent spinal intradural procedures that included the use of dural sealant during closure were identified retrospectively. Post-operative data on 15 pa...
