Comparative Evaluation of Accuracy Volume Root Canal Teeth with High-Tech Methods Research Experiment
Abstract
The aim: to study the accuracy of various radiographic tomographic techniques in the evaluation of the volume of the root canal. Materials and methods. Test objects (phantoms) containing various groups of teeth, allowing to carry out X-ray examination in the same position were studied. The research methods: multislice computed tomography, cone-beam computed tomography, cone-beam computed tomography with high resolution and microcomputer tomography. Results. The index values exceeding microcomputer tomography ranged from 2 to 16 times dominating over other radiological tomographic techniques at a comparative assessment of methods of research. Comparison methodology was not significantly different from each other in the accuracy of the determination of volume. Conclusion. The excess was greatest for CBCT, then the excess should compare with MSCT, the smallest excess proved to CBCT-HR.
