“…Inadequate diagnostic quality radiographs both lose diagnostic significance and cause unnecessary radiation to patients because they need to be repeated 4 . Numerous studies have analyzed the various errors and further assessed the reasons for retakes of panoramic radiographs of adult patients [6][7][8][9][10][11][12] . However, the literature contains limited studies on comparisons of the positioning errors of panoramic radiographs among pediatric patients 5,13,14 .…”

Background/Aim: Improper positioning of the patient reduces the diagnostic quality of panoramic radiographs. It is important to perfect the panoramic patient positioning technique to avoid unnecessary repeat exposures especially in pediatric patients. In this study, pediatric patient sample of records collected from an oral and dental health center were analyzed to determine the relative incidence of positioning errors of panoramic radiographs. Material and Methods: 3788 (1928 girls, 1860 boys) digital panoramic radiographs obtained from the stored data in the system were selected randomly. The radiographs were evaluated by two radiology specialists, by recording separately. The positioning errors of the images were categorized into ten groups: the chin tipped high, chin tipped low, a slumped position, the patient positioned forward, the patient positioned backward, failure to position the tongue against the palate, patient movement during exposure, the head tilted, and the head turned to one side. The results were statistically analyzed for positioning errors according to age and gender. Results: In 3788 radiographs, 2138 (56.4%) were error-free and 1650 (43.6%) were present with positioning errors. In the improper images, a single positional error was present in 1379 (83.6%); two positional errors were present in 248 (15%) and three or more positional errors in 23 (1.4%). The most common error observed was the tongue not being in contact with the hard palate (32.1%). On the other hand, the least common experienced error was patient movement during exposure (2.0%). Conclusions: The positioning errors of panoramic radiographs were common in the sample group of this study. Careful patient positioning can play a significant role in improving the radiographic quality and reducing the number of retakes.

“…Selain itu bentuk dan ukuran artefak juga akan memengaruhi hasil dan menurunkan kualitas hasil radiograf. 6 Penelitian mengenai kualitas radiograf panoramik telah dilakukan di berbagai negara seperti Korea, Turki, Nepal dan India, namun saat ini, penelitian-penelitian tersebut belum pernah dilakukan di Indonesia. Turki menunjukkan 28% memiliki kualitas radiograf yang buruk.…”

A panoramic radiograph can be classified as a good image (acceptable) for diagnosis examination if it has good quality image including no artefacts. The shape and size of artefact will affect the accuracy of diagnosis in a disease or disorder. This study aimed to determine the quality of digital panoramic radiographs in terms of artefacts at hospitals in the city of Semarang. This was a descriptive and observational study. This study was conducted at three Radiology Installations of Semarang Hospital, namely Sultan Agung Islamic Hospital, Tugurejo Hospital, and Dr. Karyadi Hospital. Patients’ identities were not disclosed to protect the privacy of the patient. The population consisted of 1305 radiographs, and 77 radiographs were taken for each installation in DICOM/JPEG format and adjusted to the check list. Observations were made by interobserver and analyzed using descriptive statistical analysis. The results showed that there were artefacts in the form of small spots (ɵ<10mm) that did not interfere with the diagnosis by 25.2%, spots with small size (<10mm) and interfered with the diagnosis by 0.65%, small size earrings that did not interfere with the diagnosis by 0.33%. In conclusion, artefacts on digital panoramic radiographs at Semarang City Hospital were as many as 26.1%. It is expected that all hospitals will be able to evaluate the quality of the radiographic results, especially in terms of artefacts, to increase the accuracy of diagnosis. Keywords: artefact; panoramic radiography; digital radiography; image quality Abstrak: Sebuah radiograf panoramik dikatakan dapat diterima sebagai gambar yang baik (acceptable) untuk diagnosis bila mempunyai kualitas yang baik di antaranya tidak terdapat artefak. Bentuk dan ukuran artefak akan memengaruhi ketepatan diagnosis penyakit atau kelainan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui kualitas radiograf panoramik digital ditinjau dari segi artefak pada Rumah Sakit di Kota Semarang. Jenis penelitian ialah deskriptif observasi. Sampel diambil dari tiga Instalasi Radiografi Rumah Sakit Semarang yaitu Rumah Sakit Islam Sultan Agung, RSUD Tugurejo, Rumah Sakit Umum Pusat dr. Kariyadi. Identitas pasien tidak disebutkan untuk menjaga privasi dari pasien. Populasi terdiri dari 1305 radiograf dan diambil 77 radiograf setiap intalasi dengan format DICOM/JPEG dan disesuaikan dengan check list. Pengamatan dilakukan oleh peneliti, training antar teman, spesialis radiologi dan dianalisis dengan analisis statistik deskriptif. Hasil penelitian mendapatkan adanya artefak berupa bercak dengan ukuran kecil (ɵ<10mm) dan tidak mengganggu diagnosis sebesar 25,2%, bercak dengan ukuran kecil (<10mm) dan mengganggu diagnosis sebesar 0,65%, dan pasien menggunakan anting ukuran kecil dan tidak mengganggu diagnosis sebesar 0,33%. Simpulan penelitian ini ialah terdapat artefak pada radiograf panoramik digital di Rumah Sakit Kota Semarang sebesar 26,1%. Diharapkan semua rumah sakit melakukan evaluasi mutu hasil radiograf terutama dari segi artefak untuk meningkatkan ketepatan diagnosis.

Ketajaman radiograf merupakan kemampuan suatu gambar radiograf memperlihatkan batas tegas objek, sehingga memiliki bentuk dan detail yang jelas. Tidak tajam dan buramnya gambaran radiograf dapat menyebabkan diagnosis serta rencana perawatan menjadi kurang tepat, lesi karies tidak teridentifikasi dengan baik, menyulitkan evaluasi perkembangan gigi-geligi dan menyebabkan pasien terekspos radiasi berlebih, karena dibutuhkan pengulangan pengambilan gambar radiograf. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah mengetahui gambaran nilai ketajaman radiograf panoramik di RSGM UNPAD. Metode: Jenis penelitian merupakan deskriptif dengan populasi yaitu data arsip radiograf panoramik di Instalasi Radiologi Rumah Sakit Gigi dan Mulut Kedokteran Gigi Universitas Padjadjaran selama bulan September-November 2019. Pengambilan sampel menggunakan total sampling dan diperoleh sebanyak 85 sampel. Analisis ketajaman dilakukan secara visual dengan melakukan pengamatan dan penilaian data radiograf panoramik Hasil: Sebanyak 62 radiograf panoramik (73%) memiliki ketajaman baik, 21 radiograf panoramik (25%) memiliki ketajaman sedang dan 2 radiograf panoramik (2%) memiliki ketajaman buruk. Simpulan: Radiograf panoramik di RSGM UNPAD memiliki gambaran nilai ketajaman baik.
