Purpose: The Teller Acuity Card (TAC) procedure is a preferential-looking method to assess visual acuity in infants and preverbal children and provides a quantitative measure of grating acuity. Several studies containing reference values have been published, the majority based on an older version of the TAC card set. In 2003, a new version of the TAC was released, called the TAC II.

Background/purpose: Identifying crestal bone level (CBL) on the buccal and lingual aspects poses challenges in conventional dental radiographs. Given that optical coherence tomography (OCT) has the capability to non-invasively provide in-depth information about the periodontium, this in vitro study aimed to assess whether OCT can effectively identify periodontal landmarks and measure CBL in the presence of gingiva.
Materials And Methods: An in-house handheld scanning probe connected to a 1310-nm swept-source OCT (SS-OCT) system, along with self-developed algorithms were employed to measure the CBL in dental models with artificial gingiva.

Background/purpose: OpenAI's GPT-4V and Google's Gemini Pro, being Large Language Models (LLMs) equipped with image recognition capabilities, have the potential to be utilized in future medical diagnosis and treatment, ands serve as valuable educational support tools for students. This study compared and evaluated the image recognition capabilities of GPT-4V and Gemini Pro using questions from the Japanese National Dental Examination (JNDE) to investigate their potential as educational support tools.
Materials And Methods: We analyzed 160 questions from the 116th JNDE, administered in March 2023, using ChatGPT-4V, and Gemini Pro, which have image recognition functions.

Background/purpose: Studies have indicated that 50%-55% of the population have malocclusion, and approximately 5%-10% require orthognathic surgery to correct this condition. Optimal placement of plates and screws significantly affects the success rate of the surgery and postoperative stability. This study evaluates the cortical thickness of the maxillary bone in the nasomaxillary and zygomaticomaxillary buttress regions in Taiwanese patients based on cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) images.

Background/purpose: There is no study available addressing the relationship between orbital volume (OV) and skeletal patterns. The purpose of this study was to investigate the correlations between the OV and patient's characteristics (sex, age, height, and skeletal patterns) of Taiwanese adults.
Materials And Methods: Cone-beam computed tomography images of 94 individuals (men: 47; women: 47) were analyzed to measure their OV and maxillary dimensions.
