“…High resolution versions with high levels of brightness, as well as excellent contrast ratios in the order of 500:1, are commercially available [1]. A number of publications have proven an at least equivalent diagnostic performance compared to hardcopy reading [2][3][4][5]. However, most recent publications have also discussed potential shortcomings, such as the curved surface of the faceplate with potential distortion artifacts, the vulnerability to ambient lighting conditions with subsequently decreased display luminance and the tendency to show distracting reflections on the faceplate.…”

The purpose of the study was to compare the detection performance of a cathode ray tube (CRT) monitor versus a liquid crystal display (LCD) monitor for simulated subtle pulmonary lesions. Ten templates containing simulated lung lesions were superimposed on an anthropomorphic chest phantom. Posteroanterior radiographs were obtained using flat panel technology and were displayed on a CRT and an LCD monitor. Image processing and reading conditions were equivalent for both softcopy displays. Five observers assessed lesion detectability using receiver-operating characteristic (ROC) methodology. A multivariate test (Pillai trace) was used to test the significance of differences (P<0.05). The multivariate test revealed significantly different detection rates for the lesion types, but no significant difference between the two display modes. Detection performance for both monitors was higher for nodules and micro-nodules and lower for lines and patchy opacities. Analysis of lesion subgroups according to their location in lucent/obscured lung areas was also not statistically significant. Under ideal reading conditions, CRT and LCD displays perform equivalently for the detection of simulated subtle pulmonary lesions.

“…Also the conventional images are interpreted against a light board which enables the radiologist to view several images, concomitantly, while digital images are read on screen at work station in succession or simultaneously, depending on the size and capacity of the screen, the soft ware and the amount of screens .Digital images can be postprocessed at the work station and the diagnostic output may thus be increased. (11,12,13,14,15,16) . Also the study shows that obvious difference were detected between film panoramic and tracing chart reading, in the measurement of appropriate length of implant, these differences are due to the same reason that mentioned in panoramic reading, beside that the tracing chart reading were as standard measures for both implant length and diameters that supply with the implant system, in which the oral surgeon depend on his standard measurements for selection of implant.…”

An important objective of the preoperative radiographs evaluation of the implant is to determine the height and width of the bone available for implant insertion. The aim of the study is to confirm the ability of film and digital panoramic radiographs by measuring the distance from the crest of alveolar bone to the roof of the mandibular canal, also compare each type of radiographs using with the tracing chart reading which is a standard measure for both implant length and diameter that supply with the implant system.In this study thirty nine patients needing implants in the lower premolars and molars region in both sides were included. Digital panoramic radiograph were examined by using computerized analysis by software of dimax system , by measuring the distance from the crest of alveolar bone to the roof of the mandibular canal , while in film panoramic radiograph, a ruler was used to measure the distance from the crest of the alveolar bone to the roof of the mandibular canal with the utilization of a viewing box. it was found that film panoramic radiograph had higher value than digital panoramic radiograph in all sites of the teeth specially in the molar region.
