The aims of this study were to evaluate the quality of indirect digitized radiographic images taken during endodontic procedures and to compare the measurements recorded with this technique to those obtained from conventional radiographs. Two-hundred conventional periapical radiographs taken at the undergraduate Endodontics Clinic of the Dental School of Bauru were digitized. The conventional a...

The purpose of this retrospective case control study was to evaluate the results of intrafocal pinning for distal radius metaphyseal fractures in children and to compare these results with conventional pinning. Data were collected from medical records and radiographs from patients who underwent closed reduction and percutaneous pinning for distal radius fracture in a Level I trauma center at th...

Abstract Conventional radiographs and CT are primary investigations in spinal trauma. However MRI is the technique assessment of degenerative inflammatory disorders. There occasions when conventional radiographs, bone scintigraphy assist diagnosis A detailed understanding anatomy spine dynamic function essential interpretation imaging. Degenerative disorders including disc disease sometimes res...

Chest radiographs play an important role in the diagnosis of lung cancer. Detection of pulmonary nodules in chest radiographs forms the basis of early detection. Due to its sparse bone structure and overlapping of the nodule with ribs and clavicles the nodule is hard to detect in conventional chest radiographs. We present a technique based on Independent Component Analysis (ICA) for the suppres...

The gold standard for measuring knee alignment is mechanical axis determined using full-limb radiographs (FLR). Measurement of joint alignment using antero-posterior (AP) knee radiographs is more accessible, economical and involves less radiation exposure to the patient compared with using full-limb radiographs. The aim of this study was to compare and assess the reproducibility of knee joint a...
