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...

The effectiveness of a positioning doll for radiography training (XPD) and acquiring the techniques of radiography was evaluated through performing radiography practice for the students in our school of radiological technologists and a questionnaire for radiological technologists. We made a ranking test composed of a five-grade evaluation system of the 39 students for the techniques of radiogra...

PURPOSE The purpose of this review is to evaluate the possibility of panoramic radiography as a national oral examination tool. MATERIALS AND METHODS This report was carried out by review of the literatures. RESULTS Panoramic radiography has sufficient diagnostic accuracy in dental caries, periodontal diseases, and other lesions. Also, the effective dose of panoramic radiography is lower th...
