In vitro Comparison of Conventional Film and Direct Digital Radiography in Proximal Caries Detection
Introduction: Various systems for intraoral digital radiography have been available as an alternative to film–based radiography. In consideration of several advantages of digital radiography such as less patient absorbed dose, manipulation of image quality and elimination of processing, it has been extensively used in different fields of dentistry in recent years. The purpose of this study wa...

متن کاملComparison of Accuracy and Observer Agreement in the Detection of Simulated External Root Resorption Using Conventional Digital Radiography and Digitally Filtered Radiography
Introduction: External root resorption is a clinical problem that often cannot be detected clinically. Thus, radiography plays a crucial role in its diagnosis. However, optimal radiographic quality with minimal radiation exposure {2.1 [EN] Verify English word/phrase choice} is an important factor in selecting the appropriate radiographic technique. The aim of this study was the comparison of ac...
