Article Synopsis
  • A study was conducted to compare the effectiveness of commercial computer screens versus DICOM-calibrated medical screens in identifying root apices and periodontal ligament (PDL) widening in dental X-rays.
  • Digital X-ray images of 53 maxillary molars were reviewed twice, once on each type of screen, to assess their diagnostic capabilities.
  • Results showed that DICOM screens significantly outperformed commercial screens in detecting widened PDLs and locating root apices, indicating their superior quality for medical imaging.
