BACKGROUND Diagnostic subtraction radiography (DSR) is a new digital radiographic image subtraction method designed to enhance detection of crestal or periapical bone density changes and to help evaluate caries progression in teeth. In this clinical study, the performance of the DSR method was evaluated for its ability to detect periodontal bone loss and was compared with that of conventional e...

Introduction: In brachytherapy, radioactive sources are placed close to the tumor, therefore, small changes in their positions can cause large changes in the dose distribution. This emphasizes the need for computerized treatment planning. The usual method for treatment planning of cervix brachytherapy uses conventional radiographs in the Manchester system. Nowadays, because of their advantages ...

The Subadult Virtual Anthropology Database (SVAD) is the largest available repository of contemporary (2010–2019) subadult reference data from around world. It composed collected individuals aged between birth and 22 years. Data were skeletal remains (n = 43, Colombia) medical images 4848) generated at examiner’s offices in United States (full-body Computed Tomography (CT) scans), hospitals Fra...

introduction: external root resorption (err) is associated with physiological and pathological dissolution of mineralized tissues by clastic cells and radiography is one of the most important methods in its diagnosis. the aim of this experimental study was to evaluate the accuracy of conventional intraoral radiography (cr) in comparison with digital radiographic techniques, i.e. charge-coupled ...

OBJECTIVE To compare measurements from synthesized cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) lateral cephalograms using orthogonal and perspective projections with those from conventional cephalometric radiographs. MATERIALS AND METHODS Thirty-one patients were imaged using CBCT and conventional cephalometry. CBCT volume data were imported in Dolphin 3D. Orthogonal and perspective lateral cephalom...

PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to compare the conventional and digital radiography in the estimation of working length in mandibular molars. MATERIALS AND METHODS Sixty molar teeth were selected and divided into three groups in the basis of canal curves (0-15°, 15-30°, >30°). After the placement of a 15 K-file, radiographs were taken with a conventional film (F-speed) and a digital sen...
