Monitoring vascular perfusion of transferred tissue is essential in reconstructive surgery to recognize early flap failure. The aim this study was evaluate the ability a digital surface scanner detect disorders through monitoring skin colour changes. A total 160 scans forearm were performed with TRIOS 3D scanner. Vascular compromise simulated at different time-points by intermittent occlusion b...

ABSTARCT With the advent of digital images the problem of keeping picture visualization uniformity arises because each printing or scanning device has its own color chart. So, universal color profiles are made by ICC to bring uniformity in various types of devices. Keeping that color profile in mind various new color charts are created and calibrated with the help of standard IT8 test charts av...

We present a new method for variable tomographic scanning based on the wavelength scanning digital interference holography (WSDIH). A series of holograms are generated with a range of scanned wavelengths. The object field is reconstructed in a number of selected tilted planes from each hologram, and the numerical superposition of all the tilted object fields results in a variable tomographic sc...

In terahertz (THz) materials science, imaging by scanning prevails when low power THz sources are used. However, the application of array detectors operating with high power THz sources is increasingly reported. We compare the imaging properties of four different array detectors that are able to record THz radiation directly. Two micro-bolometer arrays are designed for infrared imaging in the 8...

Images scanned in the presence of mechanical vibration are subject to artifacts such as brightness fluctuation and geometric warping. The goal of the present study is to characterize these distortions and develop a restoration algorithm to invert them, hence producing an output digital image consistent with a scanner operating under ideal uniform motion conditions. The image restoration algorit...

introduction : the aim of the present study was to comparatively evaluate the physical surface changes and incidence of separation in rotary nickel-titanium (niti) instruments using scanning electron microscope (sem). methods and materials: a total number of 210 freshly extracted human maxillary and mandibular first molars were selected and distributed between three groups. three different syst...

Purpose: This paper evaluates the mechanical parameters for three dimensions PTW automatic water phantom system (MP3-S) and its computer controlled measuring system (MEPHYSTO software version 7.3). Material and Methods: This study compares the scanning overall speed using the PTW water phantom and PTW MEPHYSTO software at different levels of overall speed 5, 10, 15, 20,30, 40, and 50mm/sec. The...

The objective of this study was to evaluate the marginal and internal fit of zirconia copings obtained with different digital scanning methods. A human mandibular first molar was set in a typodont with its adjacent and antagonist teeth and prepared for an all-ceramic crown. Digital impressions were made using an intraoral scanner (3Shape). Polyvinyl siloxane impressions and Type IV gypsum model...
