PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to assess radiographer familiarity and preferences with digital radiography in four teaching hospitals and thereafter make recommendations in line with the migration from screen film to digital radiography. MATERIALS AND METHODS A questionnaire was designed to collect data from either qualified or student radiographers from four teaching hospitals. From t...

To carry out in vivo and in vitro comparative pilot study to evaluate the preciseness of a newly proposed digital dental radiography setup. This setup was based on markers placed on an external frame to eliminate the measurement errors due to incorrect geometry in relative positioning of cone, teeth and the sensor. Five patients with previous panoramic images were selected to undergo the propos...

abstract introductiion. there are a lot of edentulous patients who need complete dentures in any society. one of the most important problems of edentulous patients is remaining dental lesions. atrophy of maxillary or mandibular bone, infections abcesses, tumors and so on are among some other problems. in this study we tried to evaluate the panoramic radiography in order to detect these problems...

RVG is modern diagnostic method based on use of digital roentgen. Principle is use of so called CCD chip in RVG sensor (Figure 1) that put in patient’s mouth (3). The first dental digit...

The frequency of Accidental Dental Abnormalities and pathologic finding in panoramic radiography orthodontic patients

Proximal dental caries remains a prevalent disease with only modest detection rates by current diagnostic systems. X-ray radiography represents the most common and successful means of diagnosing early dental caries lesions, however; many new systems are available without controlled validation of diagnostic efficacy. This study evaluated the caries detection of three new dental radiographic imag...

  Background: This study has aimed to measure the patient dose in entire spine radiography by EOS system in comparison with the digital radiography. Methods: EOS stereo-radiography was used for frontal and lateral view spine imaging in 41 patients in a prospective analytical study. A calibrated dose area product (DAP) meter was used for calibration of the DAP in EOS system. The accuracy and pr...
