Creazione di un plug-in per il software open-source di visualizzazione di immagini DICOM OsiriX per lo studio delle variazioni dimensionali e densitometriche di metastasi epatiche in TCMS
Presentiamo la nostra esperienza riguardo la progettazione e l'utilizzo di un plug-in per il software open-source di visualizzazione di immagini DICOM (OsiriX 32-bit; GNU General Public License) per la valutazione dei criteri dimensionali e densitometrici di metastasi epatiche in TCMS.
Bartotraumatic Blowout Fracture After Sneezing: Cone Beam CT demonstration
Rarely a blowout orbital fracture is related to sneezing in patients with no history of trauma or sinus surgery. A case of barotraumatic, pure and isolated blowout fracture of the right orbit after sneezing diagnosed by CBCT is reported. A forty-year-old man complained sudden right diplopia after vigorous sneezing. On MRI a reduced size and an altered shape of the right maxillary sinus, a slightly increased vertical diameter of the right orbit, a round shape of the inferior rectus muscle on coronal sections, and a right maxillary haemosinus were observed. A strong peripheral enhancement of the maxillary sinus wall was evident. One week after the patient was submitted to a maxillofacial CBCT…
CBCT in the detection of odontoma
OBJECTIVES: Odontoma is the most common among odontogenic tumors, representing 22- 23.9% of them. Impaction, aplasia, malformation, malpositioning, and devitalization of adjacent teeth are associated with 50-70% of odontomas. Two types of odontoma are distinguished, compound and complex. The typical features of compound odontoma are separate, rudimentary, closely positioned toothlike structures . When such buds form an amorphous and irregular conglomerate of dental tissue without a clear division, they are classified as complex odontoma. Both types are recognized more frequently in the permanent dentition, typically in the second or third decade of life. The anterior maxilla and the posteri…
