Tonsillectomy is old surgical procedure that has evolved to a more safe method that has lesser complications with little or no morbidity and mortality. Aim: this was comparative study which compared the old dissection tonsillectomy method and the newer method of tonsillectomy (ultrasonic scalpel and Laser tonsillectomy method). Methodology: Equal number of patients both in age and sexes had con...

PURPOSE The conventional trocar and cannula method in peritoneal dialysis (PD) catheter insertion has its limitation in clinical setting. The aim of this study was to compare a modified method for percutaneous PD catheter insertion with the conventional method, and demonstrate advantages of the modified method. MATERIALS AND METHODS Patients at a single center who had percutaneous PD catheter...

This paper proposes direct torque control of induction motor simulation using conventional method. Direct Torque Control (DTC) is a control technique used in AC drive systems to obtain high performance torque control and thereby controlling the speed of induction motor. The principle is based on simultaneous decoupling of stator flux and electromagnetic torque of AC drive system. DTC drives use...

The main objective of medical image segmentation is to extract and characterize anatomical structures with respect to some input features or expert knowledge. The Otsu method is a popular non-parametric method in medical image segmentation. Traditional Otsu method for medical image segmentation is time–consuming computation and became an obstacle in real time application systems. In the same wa...

A recent study showed that orange-red fluorescence in carious dentin could be used to detect residual caries (Lennon & others, 2002). This study compared the ability of a new fluorescence-aided caries excavation technique (FACE) with the conventional method. Forty extracted teeth with occlusal dentin caries were selected. The teeth were bisected longitudinally through the center of the lesion. ...

An implant-supported hybrid prosthesis is an acrylic resin complete fixed dental prosthesis and supported by implants might be a solution in extreme cases that the need of the restoration for esthetics, function, lip support, and speech. This clinical report aims to present the esthetic and functional prosthetic rehabilitation of three borderline cases with implant-supported hybrid prostheses. ...

introduction: the conventional method of teaching endodontics has some drawbacks. due to the small size of the oral cavity, students cannot closely observe the clinical procedure. use of new teaching modalities such as the intraoral camera may obviate this problem. this study assessed the effect of video-assisted clinical instruction in dentistry (vacid) on dental student’s knowledge and perfor...
