چکیده

A 7-month-old white female with Pentalogy of Cantrell was imaged using 64 slice multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) with 3D mapping to better determine the extent of cardiac, thoracic, and abdominal malformations. Complimentary to ultrasound, the use of 3D 64 slice MDCT can facilitate effective diagnosis and treatment planning in cases of Pentalogy of Cantrell.

Correlation Between Tissue Densities in Computed Tomography and Three Different Cone-Beam Computed Tomography Units (In Vitro)

Background and Aim: Bone density is of great assistance in the selection of the proper implant site. The present study aimed to assess the correlation between tissue densities in computed tomography (CT) and three different cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) units. Materials and Methods: In this descriptive study, a radiographic phantom consisting of a transparent polymethyl methacrylate (PM...
