Background: Osteoporosis is a systemic skeletal disease characterized by low bone mineral density (BMD) and micro-architectural deterioration of bone tissue, leading to bone fragility and increased fracture risk. Since Panoramic image is a feasible and relatively routine imaging technique in dentistry; it could provide an opportunistic chance for screening osteoporosis. In this regard, numerous...

Introduction: This study aims to evaluate the dentomaxillofacial radiographic changes in end stage renal disease (ESRD) patients who were on hemodialysis. Methods: Parathyroid hormone (PTH), calcium, phosphorus and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) measurements, as well as Panoramic and periapical radiographs were obtained from seventy four patients with a history of end stage renal disease (ESRD). Re...

OBJECTIVE Anatomically, the upper end of the femur is a common site for osteoporosis. Therefore, The trabecular pattern in the upper end of femur is analyzed on the basis of the presence or absence, the relative number and density of the trabeculae, trabecular group and also by the grading of trabeculae. The present study was undertaken to identify the trabecular pattern in the upper end of the...

The morphologic features of third-passage human trabecular cells were examined in multiple experiments by light and electron microscopy. Evaluation of the cellular growth pattern, fibronectin immunofluorescence, and specific ultrastructural features have helped to establish the identity of the trabecular cell type. Comparison of the cultured trabecular cells with cultured keratocytes and sclera...

the level or degree of osteoporosis based on widely used Singh lndex (SI). The aims of this research was to help the Multi-channel filtering implemented using Discrete physician in diagnosis of odmpaosis by providing Transform is capab1e lo quantitative information about trabecular pattern recorded characteristics of the human visual system. In the in radiographs of proximal femur. assessment o...

High-resolution micro computed tomography has enabled measurement of bone architecture derived from 3D representations of cancellous bone. Twenty-eight vertebral bodies were obtained from four embalmed male cadavers. From 3D anaglyphs, trabecular rod thickness and length were measured and the trabecular rod Buckling index was calculated. From 3D voxel-based datasets, bone volume density, trabec...
