introduction: various systems for intraoral digital radiography have been available as an alternative to film–based radiography. in consideration of several advantages of digital radiography such as less patient absorbed dose, manipulation of im age quality and elimination of processing, it has been extensively used in different fields of denti stry in recent years. the purpose of this study wa...

objectives: this study sought to assess the diagnostic accuracy of cone beam computed tomography (cbct) with different voxel sizes and intraoral digital radiography with photostimulable phosphor (psp) plate for detection of periapical (pa) bone lesions. materials and methods: in this ex vivo diagnostic study, one-millimeter defects were created in the alveolar sockets of 15 bone blocks, each wi...

The development of veterinary dentistry has substantially improved the ability to diagnose canine and feline dental abnormalities. Consequently, examinations previously performed only on humans are now available for small animals, thus improving the diagnostic quality. This has increased the need for technical qualification of veterinary professionals and increased technological investments. Th...
