Background and Objective: Computerized tomography and fluoroscopic computerized tomography are amongst the methods used for guiding needle biopsy processes; however, fluoroscopic computerized tomography demonstrates the images during the process of biopsy. This study aims to compare and contrast the success of biopsy under guide...

statement of the problem in order to replace lost tooth of patients, we use dental implants which are common. therefore, accurate measuring of bone height and width before placing implants is necessary. the aim of this study is evaluating the accuracy of linear and spiral tomography in careful determination of implant site sizes in comparison with gold standard (cbct). material and methods this...

conclusions the automatic bolus-tracking method, results in higher contrast enhancement of the aorta and spleen at the portal phase, but has no effect on liver enhancement. however, bolus tracking is associated with reduced variability for liver enhancement among different patients. results forty-eight patients (23 male, 25 female, mean age=56.4±13.5 years) were included. the contrast enhanceme...

background and objective: computerized tomography and fluoroscopic computerized tomography are amongst the methods used for guiding needle biopsy processes; however, fluoroscopic computerized tomography demonstrates the images during the process of biopsy. this study aims to compare and contrast the success of biopsy under guide of computerized tomography and fluoroscopic computerized tomograph...

abstract necrotizing sarcoid granulomatosis (nsg) is a rare disease which is classified in the spectrum of pulmonary angiitis and granulomatosis. it is a variant of sarcoidosis and differs from it histologically. diagnosis is based on the pathological features, but radiology may help in the differential diagnosis. it is characterized by alveolar infiltrates or parenchymal nodules in multidetect...

background and aims. cone-beam computed tomography (cbct) is an imaging system which has many advantages over computed tomography (ct). in ct scan, hounsfield unit (hu) is proportional to the degree of x-ray attenuation by the tissue. in cbct, the degree of x-ray attenuation is shown by gray scale (voxel value). the aim of the present study was to investigate the relationship between gray scale...

background: radiographic examination of tmj is indicated when there are clinical signs of pathological conditions, mainly bone changes that may influence the diagnosis and treatment planning. the purpose of this study was to evaluate and to compare the validity and diagnostic accuracy of uncorrected and corrected sagittal tomographic images in the detection of simulated mandibular condyle erosi...

Background: This study assessed the optimal timing of computed tomography for detection of metastatic disease in locoregional lymph nodes in patients with rectal cancer who have undergone chemoradiotherapy. Materials and Methods: This observational retrospective study was performed in a single institution. All patients with locally advanced rectal cancer treated with chemoradiotherapy, followed...
