successful endodontic therapy depends on adequate mechanical and chemical debridement of the canal which requires knowledge of the canal morphology. conventional radiography has been used to evaluate the canal type; however, direct digital radiography has recently been practiced for this purpose due to the shortcomings of conventional radiography. the aim of the present study was to compare the...

introdouction: canal length measurement is essential for proper endodontic treatment. any error or miscalculation in working length determination, particularly in curved canals, can result in complications during or after root canal therapy. digital radiography has enabled accurate measurement of curved canal length. in this study, we evaluated the accuracy of calibration of a complementary met...

background the first commercial system for digital radiography was introduced in 1987, and it has evolved a great deal since then. currently, it is possible to enhance images in digital radiography. objectives the aim of this study is to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of image enhancement in direct digital radiography as it relates to interproximal carries assessment. conclusions using these ...

objective: when none of digital systems and scanners is accessible and it is essential to have digitized images of conventional radiographs, digital cameras can be used. the aim of this study was to investigate whether digital images obtained by different resolutions of a digital camera are matched to the original radiographs in evaluation of caries. methods: in this diagnostic accuracy in vitr...
