The main goal of this study was to identify the main distinctive radiographic characteristics of different unilocular radiolucent mandibular lesions based on the criteria used by different groups of specialists during the process of radiograph interpretation to arrive at a correct diagnosis. A total of 24 panoramic radiographs were selected exhibiting the following lesions: ameloblastoma, kerat...

With the advance of multimedia and diagnostic images technologies, the number of radiographic images is increasing constantly. The medical field demands sophisticated systems for search and retrieval of the produced multimedia document. This paper presents an ongoing research that focuses on the semantic content of radiographic image documents to facilitate semantic-based radiographic image ind...

INTRODUCTION In regional, rural and remote clinical practice, radiographers work closely with medical members of the acute care team in the interpretation of radiographic images, particularly when no radiologist is available. However, the misreading of radiographs by non-radiologist physicians has been shown to be the most common type of clinical error in the emergency department. Further, in A...

Real-time digital radiography is an important developmental tendency for radiographic inspection and diagnosis technique, and enhancement of image is the key to improve resolution and sensitivity of radiographic inspection. In this paper, the algorithm and character of Rank-Order filter is discussed with great emphasis. Rank-Order filter is one of nonlinear filter, All the methods are used to p...
