Objective: Radiological examination for the detection of asymptomatic pathology in edentulous patients is very important. The aim of this study is to evaluate different significant radiological findings in the panoramic radiographies, which were routinely taken for a group of edentulous patients. Materials and Methods: This study was performed on 200 edentulous patients who admitted for various...

Background: Chest radiography is one of the most usual diagnostic tools for respiratory distress. Objective: The purpose of this study is to assess the specificity, sensitivity and clinical value of chest radiography of neonates with respiratory distress.Patients and Methods: A descriptive- analytical study was conducted on 102 neonates that were in neonatal intensive care unit of Imam Reza and...

The most common cause of empyema is a complicated parapneumonic effusion, but other foci infection may also spread to the pleural space. A man in his early 30s with history testicular mixed germ cell tumor presented week pleuritic chest pain. On admission, he was tachypneic, tachycardic, and had tested positive for severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). Imaging rev...

the past few decades, rapid changes have taken place in the fields of science and technology. Simultaneously , great progress has been made in research work on laser applications. Today, laser use ranges from simple applications such as recording prices of groceries to complex applications such as measuring distance to the moon and laser-guided warfare. 1 In the field of dentistry, the research...

After describing the principles of the "in pool" and "dry" installations, techniques used in neutron radiography are reviewed. Use of converter foils with silver halide films for the direct and transfer methods is described. Advantages of the use of nitrocellulose film for radiographying radioactive objacts are discussed. Dynamic imaging is shortly reviewed. Standardization in the field of neut...

Eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis (EGPA), previously referred to as Churg–Strauss syndrome, is an eosinophilic vasculitis that involves the lungs, peripheral nerves, and gastrointestinal (GI) tract [1]. A 55-year-old man who had an established diagnosis of EGPA with asthma, marked eosinophilia, and fever visited our institution because of epigastralgia. Esophagogastroduodenoscopy (E...

The availability of computed radiography has opened the possibility of using reduced dosage for radiographs in clinical settings and reducing the retake rate. A prospective controlled study was carried out over a period of four months comparing conventional X-rays and computed radiography. The aim was to assess if computed radiography at 50% normal dosage would result in films of adequate quali...

Objective – Technological improvement is usually followed by comparisons between conventional and new. Those who work with radiographic assessment, such as cephalometric analysis for orthodontic diagnosis, have been living a new challenging and learning phase since the introduction of digital images. It is possible to obtain reproducible and clear images with digital radiography, but radiograph...

OBJECTIVES Lipomas are common benign mesenchymal neoplasms that rarely occur in the oral cavity and correspond to less than 4.4% of all benign oral soft tissue tumors. This study describes the clinical, radiological and histological features of cases of oral lipomas seen over a period of 10 years and compared the findings with those reported in the literature. STUDY DESIGN All cases of oral l...
