Aims & Objectives: To compare the fi ndings of Radiography and Computed Tomography (CT) in the diagnosis of vertical root fractures and to correlate our fi ndings post operatively. Material and Methods: We evaluated 22 cases of clinically suspected vertical root fractures those who were referred to us for Dental CT and compared fi ndings of Radiography and CT. Radiography was carried out in the...

Production process control becomes complicated as the complexity of the controlled process grows. To simp113 the operator's role many computer based control systems with integrated visualization clients have been developed. In many practical circumstances malfunction of one or more process components results in other related components entering the alarm states. Several alarms appear on the ope...

Using Root Cause Analysis to Handle Intrusion Detection Alarms Klaus Julisch IBM Zurich Research Laboratory Säumerstrasse 4 8803 Rüschlikon, Switzerland e-mail: [email protected] In response to attacks against enterprise networks, administrators are increasingly deploying intrusion detection systems. These systems monitor hosts, networks, and other resources for signs of security violations. U...

Our objective is to analyze the constitution and drug resistance of pathogenic microorganisms in infected root canals. 69 patients with chronic periapical periodontitis were selected, the tooth root canals of which were collected. There were 15 cases (group A) with root canal infection after root canal treatment failure, 18 cases (group B) with root canal infection after dental crown restoratio...

A major challenge in Spoken Dialogue Systems (SDS) is the detection of problematic communication (hotspots), as well as the classification of these hotspots into different types (root cause analysis). In this work, we focus on two classes of root cause, namely, erroneous speech recognition vs. other (e.g., dialogue strategy). Specifically, we propose an automatic algorithm for detecting hotspot...

OBJECTIVES This study aimed to compare the accuracy of conventional intraoral (CI) radiography, photostimulable phosphor (PSP) radiography, cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) and multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) for detection of strip and root perforations in endodontically treated teeth. MATERIALS AND METHODS Mesial and distal roots of 72 recently extracted molar were endodonticall...

BACKGROUND Shape of the dental root canal is highly patient specific. Automated identification methods of the medial line of dental root canals and the reproduction of their 3D shape can be beneficial for planning endodontic interventions as severely curved root canals or multi-rooted teeth may pose treatment challenges. Accurate shape information of the root canals may also be used by manufact...

Computed tomography angiography (CTA) is a preferred imaging technique for wide range of vascular diseases. However, extensive manual analysis required to detect and identify several anatomical landmarks clinical application. This study demonstrates the feasibility fully automatic method detecting aortic root, which key landmark in this type procedure. The approach based on use deep learning te...

land mines are one of the tragic problems to human security in many countries. among many techniques suggested detecting landmines, plant-based detectors can be used as a reliable tool for unexploded ordnance detection. this study was conducted to determine different concentrations effect of trinitrotoluene (0, 5, 10, 15, 20, 30, 45 and 60 ppm) on germination and early seedling growth of 6 spec...
