INTRODUCTION Inappropriate condensation of gutta-percha or improper use of sealer can lead to voids in root canal filling material and consequent failure of the treatment. Timely detection of voids within root canal filling may prevent complications. In this study, we compared the accuracy of digital and conventional radiograph for detecting voids within root canal fillings. MATERIALS AND MET...

DSR has made a significant improvement in the detection of dental & maxillofacial lesions. The Digital Subtraction Radiography is used to compare standardized radiographs taken at sequential examination visits. All unchanged structures are subtracted and these areas are displayed in neutral gray shade in the subtraction image; while regions that have changed are displayed in darker or lighter s...

Study of Image quality parameters like Contrast, SNR and MTF for Digital Radiography with FPD were carried out at different X-Ray tube variables like energy of X-Ray (kV) and tube current (mA) for different welded tube thicknesses. Experiments of Digital Radiography were carried out on butt welded tubes. Images of these welded tubes were taken with different kV and mA on actual working setup ke...

The advent of digital imaging in radiology, combined with the explosive growth of technology, has dramatically improved imaging techniques. This has led to the expansion of diagnostic capabilities, both in terms of the number of procedures and their scope. Throughout the world, film/screen radiography systems are being rapidly replaced with digital systems. Many progressive medical institutions...
