Title: [The image quality of extraoral x-ray pictures]. Author: Langenhan J, Schneider HG. Journal: Radiol Diagn (Berl); 1990; 31(3):273-7. PubMed ID: 2367634. Abstract: A check was made on 594 X-ray examinations of ambulant oral surgery patients (= 1378 single pictures in several radiographic techniques). A good quality had 72% of the pictures. A decreased quality had 23% of them. A diagnosis was still possible. 5% of pictures were useless. Radiographic techniques were used in 8% of the 594 X-ray examinations with not optimal methods for the intended aim. In these cases it were better to change to other methods (other focussing or other apparatus).[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
