KEY POINTS
Multidetector computed tomography is useful in treatment planning, but has limited use during implant surgery and follow-up of cases.
Low-dose protocols should be applied without compromising the diagnostic quality of images....
Objectives: To evaluate the impact of routine open mouth osseous TMJ tomography on diagnosis and treatment planning of TMJ conditions. Investigating the need for such images is important in order to justify the additional radiation exposure imparted...
Objectives
Differences in noise and density values in MDCT images obtained using ultra-low doses with FBP, ASIR, and MBIR may possibly affect implant site density analysis. The aim of this study was to compare density and noise measurements recorded...

Purpose: To assess the comparability of linear measurements of dental implant sites recorded from multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) images obtained using standard dose filtered backprojection (FBP) technique with those from various ultralow...
The thickness of the roof of the glenoid fossa (RGF) is highly variable, but there are no reported cases of absence of mineralized bone at the RGF in an asymptomatic patient. We present the rare finding of a large apparent discontinuity of the RGF...
This platform is designed to hold dry skulls during research involving x-ray imaging of the skulls with cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) and panoramic-cephalometric (pan-ceph) radiography devices. The dimensions of the different components of...
Objectives: To compare the prevalence of TMJ osteoarthritic changes in CBCT images of TMD and non-TMD patients.Study Design: A retrospective analysis of CBCT images of the joints of TMD and non-TMD patients was performed. The presence or absence of...
Meticulously written by a team of sub-specialty experts, Specialty Imaging: Dental Implants is a comprehensive reference ideal for anyone involved with dental implant imaging, including oral and maxillofacial radiologists, oral surgeons,...
Ankylosis is a Greek word meaning a stiff joint. Temporomandibular joint ankylosis is the development of complete or incomplete limitation of movement of the temporomandibular joint by bone or fibrous tissue. There are many predisposing factors that...
Objectives: To investigate the effect of epinephrine in local anesthetic solutions on systolic and diastolic blood pressures.Design: A buccal infiltration injection of 1.8 ml lignocaine 2% with epinephrine 1:100,000 (18 ug) was administered to...
The Infection Control Guidelines for the College of Dentistry, King Saud University, 2012, present the requirements for the practice of infection control in the various departments of the College, as approved by the College Board of the College of...
Objective: To investigate the prevalence and reliability of diagnosis of soft tissue calcification of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) in cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) images of TMJ and non-TMJ patients.
Materials and methods: All...
Objective: To determine if the differing contrast resolution of various LCD monitors affects the reliability or accuracy of measurements of proposed implant sites.Materials and methods: Edentulous areas of human dry skulls were marked with...
Objectives: To investigate the accuracy and reliability of implant site measurements, recorded from low-dose cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) images.
Methods: CBCT reformatted images of five skulls were obtained using 40, 20 and 7 s exposure...
Lipoid proteinosis is an autosomal recessive disease of abnormal deposition of glycoprotein in various tissues. Symptoms may include a hoarse voice, lesions and scarring on the skin, easily damaged skin with poor wound healing, dry, wrinkly skin,...
Objectives: The aim of this study was to investigate the accuracy and reliability of linear
measurements of edentulous ridges recorded from 16-row multidetector CT (MDCT) images
and cone beam CT (CBCT) images acquired using a flat panel detector (...
Thyroglossal duct cyst (TGDC)is the most common non-odontogenic cyst in the neck. It is a lesion mainly detected in childhood but which may elude detection until adulthood. When such TGDC presents in adulthood, it is often seen by maxillofacial...
