The purpose of this study was to compare the means of the normal soft tissue proportions of babol people with the norms of Caucasians. Materials & Methods: In this cross-sectional study, 100 cases with normal occlusion and proportional facia...

OBJECTIVE To perform a retrospective review of all patients receiving technetium-99m ((99m)Tc)-labelled sulesomab over a 4-year period to determine if soft tissue infections can be accurately identified. METHODS AND MATERIALS We reviewed the results of 124 (99m)Tc-sulesomab studies performed over a 4-year period. Of these, 34 were performed for undiagnosed fever in which soft tissue infection...

Soft tissue uptake of Tc-99m labeled bone seeking agents, such as Tc-99m 3,3-diphosphono-1,2-propanedicarboxylic acid (DPD), is commonly seen in clinical practice, even though bone scintigraphy is mainly used to detect bone disease. However, gastric uptake of bone agents in patients with gastric cancer is very rare. And it has been reported that calcified gastric adenocarcinoma appears in only ...

 Dental implants, as a result of their excellent success rates and advantages over fixed or removable methods, have become the optimal treatment for replacing missing teeth. Surgical and restorative techniques that can reduce the loss of hard and soft tissues that often accompany implant placement are desirable. Achieving an esthetic outcome in tooth replacement and implant treatment requires a...

Introduction: Mandibular continuity defects after pathologic resections or traumatic events are difficult cases for reconstruction. Defects involving both hard and soft tissue loss are more challenging, because of problems in soft tissue coverage. The role of the submental flap in this regard is presented.   Materials and Methods: In a retrospective study from the archived files of Ghaem Hospi...
