background the first commercial system for digital radiography was introduced in 1987, and it has evolved a great deal since then. currently, it is possible to enhance images in digital radiography. objectives the aim of this study is to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of image enhancement in direct digital radiography as it relates to interproximal carries assessment. conclusions using these ...

Introduction The aspiration to ensure early diagnosis for all people with tuberculosis (TB) [1], combined with recent advancements in digital technology, has brought chest radiography back to the forefront for TB detection. Once a mainstay for TB control in the community, but discouraged once bacteriology became the standard for TB diagnosis, chest radiography has recently come back into favour...

Carestream has implemented companion views in its digital radiography systems. A companion view is designed to complement the standard processed radiographic image delivered from the digital radiography capture modality to PACS, to provide an additional rendering tailored for the visual interpretation needed for a specific diagnostic or clinical purpose. Two companion views are available in Car...

OBJECTIVES Early diagnosis of incipient and non-cavitated carious lesions is crucial for performing preventive treatments. The aim of this study was to compare the efficacy of three diagnostic methods of bitewing radiography, DIAGNOdent, and visual examination in diagnosing incipient occlusal caries of permanent first molars. MATERIALS AND METHODS In this diagnostic cross-sectional study, 109...

We studied the performance of three computed radiography and three direct radiography systems with regard to the image noise and entrance skin dose based on a chest phantom. Images were obtained with kVp of 100, 110, and 120 and mA settings of 1, 2, 4, 8, and 10. Significant differences of image noise were found in these digital chest radiography systems (P<.0001). Standard deviation was signif...

The use of mammography film-screen is limited in general radiography. The purpose of this study was to compare the effectiveness of mammographic film-screen and standard film-screen systems in the detection of small bone fractures. Radiographs were taken from patients' extremities and neck areas using mammography film-screen and standard film-screen (n=57 each). Fourteen other radiographs were ...

Background and Aim: Marginal adaptation has a significant role in the success and longevity of indirect restorations. This experimental study compared the effect of intraoral and extraoral scanning on the marginal adaptation of the crowns which was made using the CEREC AC system. Materials and Methods: A Typodont maxillary first molar was prepared and served as the master die for an all-cera...
