However, while MRI is suitable for soft tissue examination and when time and cost are not important factors, in real clinical settings, e.g., in traumatic injuries, CT images are typically used due to time urgency, better visibility of bones and blood as well as low cost.
In the conventional ridge splitting technique, a complete flap is raised to allow adequate visibility of the bone defect which can result in disturbance of vascular supply and increase bone resorption rates.
Objective: The objective of this study was to determine the degree to which trabecular bone contributes to the radiographic visibility of lamina dura.
Finally, the visibility of sacrococcygeal bones was described based on the sagittal T2- weighted MRI data.
The subperiosteal tissue was dissected to achieve an adequate visibility of the underlying bone.
Also, large voxel size reduced the visibility of the occlusal surfaces and bone in the anterior region in both maxilla and mandible.
Longer exposures or the use of more powerful lights to boost contrast does not improve their visibility as light reflected from the bones and soft tissues can washout the image.
Bone suppression in the anthropomorphic phantom resulted in improved visibility of the gold fiducials with the 2.5 MV beam.
"Sometimes we bug her," Carew said with a small smile, "when she'd rather sleep". Jackson's support, family members said, brings visibility to more than 2,000 cancer patients nationwide who are waiting for bone marrow matches.
The results here show that large pixel resolution of 0.6, 0.9, or 1.2 mm in the x, y plane significantly reduce the visibility of the occlusal surfaces of the teeth, interproximal space between the teeth, and alveolar bone.
