conclusions according to the results of this study, the accuracy of the file length in improved digital images showed no significant difference in comparison with the actual file length. materials and methods using an analytical-diagnostic method, an access cavity was prepared in 36 mandibular and maxillary premolar teeth. a file # 15 was inserted into the canal of each tooth until the tip of t...

introduction: increasing volume of information in various sciences, such as medicine, has led to the use of various strategies to effectively provide students, researchers, and teachers with medical and paramedical information. the iranian ministry of health and medical education has developed an online digital library, called iranian national medical digital library (inmdl), which provides acc...

abstract various studies carried out on different photo anthropometry, but each one had some deficiencies which during the years they have been resolved. the objective of this paper is to test the efficiency of two-dimensional image processing software in photo anthropometry of hand. in this applied research, 204 office workers and industrial workers were selected. their hands were measured by ...

introduction: vertical root fracture (vrf) is a complication which is chiefly diagnosed radiographically. recently, film-based radiography has been substituted with digital radiography. at the moment, there is a wide range of monitors available in the market for viewing digital images. the present study aims to compare the diagnostic accuracy, sensitivity and specificity of medical and conventi...

this study was conducted to compare the mandibular bone density between postmenopausal women with normal skeletal bone mass density (bmd) and those with low skeletal bmd using digital panoramic radiographs.one hundred fifteen postmenopausal women were divided into normal and osteoporotic/osteopenic groups. digital panoramic radiographs were prepared using digora pct sorodex equipment and promax...

object: the gold standard for evaluating bone mineral density is dual energy x-ray absorptiometry (dexa).  prior studies have shown poor reliability using analog wrist x-rays in diagnosing osteoporosis. our goal was to investigate if there was improved diagnostic value to visual assessment of digital hand x-rays in osteoporosis screening. we hypothesized that similar to analog counterparts, dig...

normal 0 false false false en-us x-none fa background: electroencephalography (eeg) has vital and significant applications in different medical fields and is used for the primary evaluation of neurological disorders. hence, having easy access to suitable and useful signal is very important. artifacts are undesirable confusions which are generally originated from inevitable human activities such...

abstract the decisions and personal preferences of the designer are vital for all aspects and stages of the design. to elaborate, the designer has the central role in creation, development, detailing and construction of the built forms. also, the scientific/engineering evaluations of the design models are carried out under the directions and decisions of the designer. the paper explores the con...

understanding of the runoff generation processes is important in understanding the magnitude and dynamics ofgroundwater discharge. however, these processes continue to be difficult to quantify and conceptualize. in this study,two digital filter based separation modules, the recursive filtering method (rdf) and a generalization of therecursive digital filter (grdf) were1991–2002 in the hableh ro...

raw cane sugar is one of the most important product in the sugar industry and is the main raw material for the white sugar production. morphological and physical properties of this product might influence the final white sugar. for instance, the behavior during centrifugation, transport and storage is related to the characteristics of these crystals. the object of this study was to determine th...
