This prospective study was done over seven years from 1996 to 2003 to investigate the chest computed tomography scan findings along with other radiologic examinations that included chest roentgenography and cranial computed tomography in children with tuberculous meningitis (TBM). Chest roentgenography demonstrated abnormal findings in 32 cases (43%) (hilar adenopathy, 32%; miliary pattern, 18%...

Computed tomographic arthrography (CTA) of four cadaveric canine stifles was performed before and after partial cranial cruciate ligament rupture in order to verify the usefulness of CTA examination for the diagnosis of partial cranial cruciate ligament rupture. To obtain the sequential true transverse image of a cranial cruciate ligament, the computed tomography gantry was angled such that the...

background and aims. cone-beam computed tomography (cbct) is an imaging system which has many advantages over computed tomography (ct). in ct scan, hounsfield unit (hu) is proportional to the degree of x-ray attenuation by the tissue. in cbct, the degree of x-ray attenuation is shown by gray scale (voxel value). the aim of the present study was to investigate the relationship between gray scale...

statement of the problem in order to replace lost tooth of patients, we use dental implants which are common. therefore, accurate measuring of bone height and width before placing implants is necessary. the aim of this study is evaluating the accuracy of linear and spiral tomography in careful determination of implant site sizes in comparison with gold standard (cbct). material and methods this...

objectives: bone quality and quantity assessment is one of the most important steps in implant treatment planning. different methods such as computed tomography (ct) and recently suggested cone beam computed tomography (cbct) with lower radiation dose and less time and cost are used for bone density assessment. this in vitro study aimed to compare the tissue density values in hounsfield units (...
