Computed Tomography (CT) is an indispensable tool for diagnostic imaging of dentomaxillofacial disease, particularly conditions requiring surgical intervention. CT is used widely to provide a three-dimensional image with satisfactory spatial resolution of the bone and tooth condition; however, imaging artifacts caused by metallic dental materials critically impair the quality of diagnostic imag...

Objectives: This article is aimed to report the use of cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) imaging analysis on a radiolucent lesion case.
 Case Report: A 24-year-old female patient was referred dentomaxillofacial radiology installation, at Universitas Padjadjaran Dental Hospital for CBCT examination lower jaw lesion. The result demonstrated large periapical tooth 37 with mostly diffuse bo...

RVG is modern diagnostic method based on use of digital roentgen. Principle is use of so called CCD chip in RVG sensor (Figure 1) that put in patient’s mouth (3). The first dental digit...

Purpose: Root fracture is a clinical problem which often is difficult to detect and diagnose. As the root fracture detection is based on demonstration of a fracture line or lines, radiographic examination is important. The aim of this study was to compare diagnostic efficacy of direct digital radiography with conventional radiography for detecting experimental root fractures. Materials & Method...

background identification of common technical errors during preparation of panoramic radiographs, how affect the quality and interpretation of the radiographs and the techniques used to deal with such errors, might help prevent unnecessary radiation to patients and save their time and money. objectives the current study aimed to identify common errors in the panoramic radiographs taken by post-...

abstract background and aim: considering the widespread development of implants in dental treatment plans, linear measurements on panoramic radiography are of especial importance. in the present study we investigated the effect of head misalignment up to 15° around vertical and horizontal axes on the magnification rate of digital panoramic radiography in each part of upper and lower jaws. mater...
