We describe a case of an incidentally-diagnosed ectopic tooth showing anomalous morphology in the maxillary antrum, using three-dimensional reconstruction of computed tomography images of the tooth obtained by multi-detector computed tomography.

We report the usefulness of functional image of dynamic computed tomography as a technique for evaluating cerebral hemodynamics. Although the technique itself has been reported, the advance of computer technology has made it possible to obtain high-resolution functional images within only a few minutes. We conducted 70 examinations on 57 patients with cerebral ischemia and correlated the findin...

The increasing use of cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) requires changes in our diagnosis and treatment planning methods as well as additional training. The standard for digital computed tomography images is called digital imaging and communications in medicine (DICOM). In this article we discuss the following concepts: visualization of CBCT images in orthodontics, measurement in CBCT images...

abstract necrotizing sarcoid granulomatosis (nsg) is a rare disease which is classified in the spectrum of pulmonary angiitis and granulomatosis. it is a variant of sarcoidosis and differs from it histologically. diagnosis is based on the pathological features, but radiology may help in the differential diagnosis. it is characterized by alveolar infiltrates or parenchymal nodules in multidetect...

The aim of this study was to reveal biometric peculiarities of New Zealand white rabbit antebrachium (radius and ulna) by means of three-dimensional (3D) reconstruction of multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) images. Under general anesthesia, the antebrachiums of a total of sixteen rabbits of both sexes were scanned with a general diagnostic MDCT. Biometric measurements of the reconstructed...

background and objective: computerized tomography and fluoroscopic computerized tomography are amongst the methods used for guiding needle biopsy processes; however, fluoroscopic computerized tomography demonstrates the images during the process of biopsy. this study aims to compare and contrast the success of biopsy under guide of computerized tomography and fluoroscopic computerized tomograph...

the purpose of this study was to identify the anatomic structures of the abdominal region of cat throughcomputed tomography (ct) to be used by veterinary radiologists, clinicians and surgeons. the abdominalregion of four cats were scanned twice, with and without using contrast medium in a same position, usinghigh-resolution imaging protocol. slice intervals were 11 mm and were adjusted so that ...

conclusion according to our findings, ct-guided percutaneous drainage is a safe and effective procedure in the treatment of abdominal abscess and fluid collection. results the average age of the patients was 54 years (range 12 to 79), including 21 (51%) men and 20 (49%) women. the common signs and symptoms were pain (83%) and fever (80.5%). the most prevalent abdominal abscess etiology was prev...

introduction: computed tomography (ct) is an imaging technique with gives us an opportunity to review cross sections of the body in live animals. in veterinary medicine although ct is mostly used for diagnostic purposes in small animals, but in recent years ct also has been used as a non invasive modality in non clinical studies. jebeer gazelle (gazella bennettii) is one of the species of the g...

background: methanol is a colorless and poisonous liquid that is commonly used as an industrial and household solvent. methanol poisoning is a rare but extremely hazardous form of in toxication that affects the central nervous system and causes visual disorder, drowsiness, seizures and coma.  case presentation: a 29-years-old man with methanol intoxication presented with drowsiness and acidosis...
