The objective of present study is to assess the depth of alveolar bone loss by using Conventional radiography (IOPA) and Digital radiography (RVG) technique in periodontitis as it affects the connective tissue attachment and supporting bone around the teeth. The study was carried out on 40 males and 10 females aged between 20 – 65 years who have generalized mild to severe chronic periodontitis....

Objective: The aim of this study was to present an analog method for preoperative planning primary total hip arthroplasty procedures based on component measurements by overlaying the transparency prosthesis radiographs and checking accuracy, both predicting size acetabular femoral components be used restore offset correct dysmetria if any. Methodology: From May 2019 June 2022, 18 arthroplasties...

OBJECTIVES The diagnosis of root fractures by conventional radiographs is still difficult because of limitations of 2D images. Cone-beam volumetric tomography improves the diagnosis capacity in dentistry, such as increased radiation dose to the patient and presence of artifacts on the image. STUDY DESIGN This study compared the images obtained on conventional periapical radiographs and 3D sca...

PURPOSE Panoramic radiographs taken using conventional chin-support devices have often presented problems with positioning accuracy and reproducibility. The aim of this report was to propose a new bite block for panoramic radiographs of anterior edentulous patients that better addresses these two issues. MATERIALS AND METHODS A new panoramic radiography bite block similar to the bite block fo...

BACKGROUND Conventional radiographs are routinely used to evaluate acetabular bone loss as part of the follow-up in patients who undergo total hip arthroplasty (THA). The objective of this study was to examine the accuracy and specificity of conventional radiographs reviewed by arthroplasty surgeons in detecting acetabular bone loss in patients with prior THA. METHODS Using a cadaveric pelvic...

PURPOSE This study was performed to assess the compatibility of cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) synthesized cephalograms with conventional cephalograms, and to find a method for obtaining normative values for three-dimensional (3D) assessments. MATERIALS AND METHODS The sample group consisted of 10 adults with normal occlusion and well-balanced faces. They were imaged using conventional ...

Computed radiography (CR) has many advantages compared with conventional radiographs, especially in image processing. Although CR is being used in chest radiography and mammography, it has not been applied to spine imaging. The purposes of this study were to formulate a set of new CR processing parameters and to test whether the resultant whole-spine radiographs visualized the spine more clearl...
