Article Synopsis
  • * Results showed that smaller voxel sizes (0.1- and 0.2-mm) yielded good to excellent reliability for measurements, with no significant differences found in linear measurements and varying results in volumetric measurements, particularly in pulp volume.
  • * Larger voxel sizes (0.4-mm) led to decreased reliability and repeatability for both linear and volumetric measurements, highlighting the importance of choosing smaller voxel sizes for accurate dental imaging.

Objectives: To examine the correlation between the fractal dimension (FD) values of cervical vertebrae (C2, C3, and C4) and hand-wrist maturation (HWM) and cervical vertebra maturation (CVM) methods. In addition, the correlation between the pubertal growth spurt (PGS) and FD values was examined.

Methods: The lateral cephalometric and hand-wrist radiographs of 120 subjects (61 females and 59 males) aged 8-18 years with a mean age of 13 years, were evaluated retrospectively.

Objectives: To investigate the artefacts caused by different disinfection and protection methods that can be used for infection control of photostimulable phosphor (PSP) plates.

Methods: The plates that were enveloped with single or double envelopes were sprayed with an alcohol-containing solution or wiped with an alcohol-containing tissue. Four PSP groups with two plates in each group were formed (A = wiping single envelope, B = wiping double envelopes, C = spraying onto single envelope, and D = spraying onto double envelopes).
