Multimodal radiography: a new imaging technique and system for oral diagnosis.

The multimodal radiography system is based on the combined use of narrow-beam radiography and spiral tomography in one set of equipment. The essentials of a system are a multifunction unit, preprogrammed imaging procedures for various dentomaxillofacial objects and a co-ordinate system for object location. Four years of clinical experience have shown that multimodal radiography is effective for depicting dentomaxillofacial structures for diagnostic purposes. The detailed narrow beam imaging mode of multimodal radiography has also been compared with intraoral radiography as regards their abilities to reveal periodontal and periapical lesions. Preliminary results indicate that detailed narrow beam radiography is more accurate than intraoral radiography in the diagnosis of periodontal and periapical pathology.

[Digital subtraction radiography technique in oral diagnosis].

The introduction of digital subtraction radiography for the evaluation of standardised dental radiographs offered increased diagnostic accuracy in the detection of subtle density changes over interpretation of conventional radiographs. The digital imaging techniques for the analysis of dental radiographs were reviewed with emphasis on periodontal diagnosis. Recently, these methods, which have been extensively tested in vitro, were applied to clinical trials for the assessment of alveolar bone density changes due to progression of disease or healing following therapy.
