Telecommunication technology used in home healthcare.

Current telemedicine applications are usually developed for doctors to do consultation and case study between several hospitals. Patients see doctor at home via Internet becomes possible and it might be a part of lifestyle in the future. Telemedicine has been an active area of research for over 30 years.

Comparison of demineralisation rates in pre- and postnatal enamel and at the neonatal line.

Aims: The neonatal line, which is an exaggerated incremental layer line, separates pre- and postnatal enamel. It has been suggested that this layer may be a barrier to the progress of a carious lesions. The objective was to measure the rate of demineralisation in pre- and postnatal enamel and within the neonatal layer using scanning microradiography (SMR).
