OBJECTIVES
To study the effect of lossy image compression on caries detection. Null hypothesis states no difference in caries detection efficacy among observers using original digital images versus… (More)
This study compared film speed, contrast, exposure latitude, and resolution of Ultra-speed, Ektaspeed, and Ektaspeed Plus films (Eastman Kodak Co., Rochester, N.Y.). Densitometric curves were… (More)
This study compares the diagnostic accuracy of caries detection using Ultra-speed (Eastman Kodak), Ektaspeed (Eastman Kodak) and Ektaspeed Plus (Eastman Kodak) films after they were developed in both… (More)
We report on a patient who presented with cranial nerve VI bilateral paresis, absence of pharyngeal reflex, dysarthria, right tongue deviation, and right facial paralysis. Imaging studies showed an… (More)
BACKGROUND
Dental professionals were reluctant to accept Ektaspeed (Eastman Kodak Co.) intraoral film despite its X-radiation dose-sparing advantages for patients. One reason may have been Ektaspeed… (More)
We present the case of a 51-year-old patient with sinonasal adenoid cystic carcinoma (SACC). Computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) exams revealed an expansive process in the… (More)
PURPOSE
Technological advances in intra-oral receptors have resulted in film-holding devices that may or may not be interchangeable with photostimulable phosphor receptors. This study evaluated the… (More)
We report on a patient who presented to ENT services with right side epistaxis, frontal lobe headache, right infraorbital pain and the feeling of having a stuffy nose. CT and MRI were performed and… (More)
OBJECTIVES
Intraoral dental tomosynthesis and closely related tuned-aperture CT (TACT) are low-dose three-dimensional (3D) imaging modalities that have shown improved detection of multiple dental… (More)
OBJECTIVE
The purpose of this study was to assess the level of compliance with dental radiography quality assurance recommendations on the part of dental practitioners in the state of North Carolina… (More)
