Precision evaluation of panoramic morphometric index measurement's performed by experienced clinicians and dental students.

Osteoporosis is a chronic degenerative disease of bones in which the primary type of it affects generally women after postmenopause. According to the literature the panoramic indices are valuable morphometric and visual tools to detect the disorder in a n early and asymptomnatic stage. The goals of study were to evaluate the reproducibility of mandibular cortical and panoramic indices and to assess population-specific index parameters.

Detection of feeding artery improves the ultrasound diagnosis of endometrial polyps in asymptomatic patients.

Objective: To investigate whether transvaginal power Doppler imaging of the vascularity improves the ultrasound detection rate of endometrial polyps in symptomatic and asymptomatic patients.

Study Design: Forty-one patients with endometrial polyps confirmed by operative hysteroscopy and histologic examination. They were all examined with grey-scale and subsequent power Doppler enhanced ultrasound preoperatively according to the same protocol.

Predictive value of hysteroscopic examination in intrauterine abnormalities.

Study Objective: This study was set up to evaluate the predictive value of hysteroscopic examination in patients referred to the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology at the Medical and Health Science Center, Debrecen, Hungary.

Study Design: The authors performed 835 biopsies by hysteroscopy over more than 13 years. They compared their findings with histological findings held in a a computerized clinical database.

Follow-up study on the effectiveness of transcervical myoma resection (TCRM).

Study Objective: To measure the efficacy of transcervical hysteroscopic fibroid resection (TCRM) among the authors' patients.

Study Design: In one department, 73 transcervical hysteroscopic fibroid resections were performed on 68 patients over a 6-year period. Using a computerized database and mailed questionnaires, 58 patients were followed up.

[Results of transcervical septotomy in infertility].

Introduction: The anatomical abnormalities of the uterus could be the cause of infertility and spontaneous abortion in several cases.

Objects: Authors would like to measure the successfulness of a modern endoscopic operative method among their own patients and the outcome of the pregnancies.

Methods: Between 1st of January 1993 and 31st of December 1999 authors performed hysteroscopic septotomy in 66 patients with the history of recurrent miscarriage or uterus septum causing infertility.
