Correlation between occlusal abnormalities and parameters investigated by three-dimensional facial photography.
Angle Orthod
September 2013
Department of Orthodontics, School of Dentistry, Eberhard Karl University, Tübingen, Germany.
Objective: To clarify, by three-dimensional (3D) facial scans, if 4- to 6-year-old children with intraoral sagittal discrepancies and open-bite occlusion show differences in facial morphology when compared to children without anomalies.
Materials And Methods: Scans of 290 children presenting with occlusal abnormalities were compared to 1772 face scans of age-matched individuals photographed with a faceSCAN II® 3D data acquisition system. From these, three study groups were formed comprising 188 children with distal occlusion/increased overjet (Class II), 37 with mesial occlusion/inverse overjet (Class III), and 65 with open-bite occlusion.
Fluorescence detection of pleural malignancies using 5-aminolaevulinic acid.
Chest
March 2006
Department of Thoracic Oncology, Antoni van Leeuwenhoek Hospital/The Netherlands Cancer Institute, Plesmanlaan 121, 1066 CX Amsterdam, the Netherlands.
Study Objective: Although the use of video-assisted thoracoscopy has improved the diagnostic accuracy in patients presenting with pleural diseases, not all biopsies performed are conclusive and staging of the disease is not always optimal. Fluorescence diagnosis (FD) with 5-aminolaevulinic acid (5-ALA) has been used in the diagnostic workup for various malignancies. The impact of 5-ALA-mediated FD on diagnosis and staging during video-assisted thoracoscopy was examined.
