Conventional Radiography of the Shoulder

Seminars in Roentgenology, 2005
Conventional radiography is a useful tool in the evaluation of shoulder pain whether in the setting of acute trauma or chronic pain and in most clinical situations should be the first imaging modality performed. Knowledge of the various projections and radiographic findings described above will ensure an optimal evaluation of the shoulder regardless of

Principles and precautions of conventional radiography

Surgery (Oxford), 2003
Abstract The production of X-rays and the different techniques available to image them are described. The types and applications of contrast agents are discussed, along with side-effects and how to avoid/minimize them. Standard radiographic projections are detailed and the methods used to improve image quality mentioned.

Conventional Radiography in Musculoskeletal Imaging

Radiologic Clinics of North America, 2009
Conventional radiography in musculoskeletal imaging has a venerable past. This article outlines the development of radiographic techniques. It then discusses the continuing advantages of conventional radiography in many specific circumstances and acknowledges the circumstances in which CT, MRI, ultrasound, and nuclear imaging are more useful modalities.

Radiographic determination of canal length: Direct digital radiography versus conventional radiography

Journal of Endodontics, 1994
This research compared the length determination images produced by Trophy and Regam direct digital radiographic systems with conventional E-speed radiographs. Size #15 K files were placed in the canals of 19 teeth of cadaver specimens and radiographed in a geometrically standardized bench device.

Imaging Anatomy: Conventional Radiography

2018
When Wilhelm Conrad Rontgen discovered X-rays in 1895, the first radiograph he took was of his wife’s hand (Rontgen, Sitzungsberichte der Physikalisch-medizinischen Gesellschaft zu Wurzburg 9:132–41, 1895). Conventional radiography has played a key role in musculoskeletal imaging ever since and is generally the first imaging modality performed in most ...

Comparative Evaluation of Digital Radiography versus Conventional Radiography of Fractured Skulls

Investigative Radiology, 1993
The authors assessed the relative efficacy of conventional and digital storage-phosphor radiographs for the detection of skull fractures.Fifty conventional film-screen radiographs (FSR) and 50 digital storage-phosphor radiographs (DR) with 66 fractures were compared. Five radiologists evaluated image quality and fracture detectability. The results were

Principles of Conventional Radiography and Fluoroscopy

Veterinary Clinics of North America: Small Animal Practice, 1993
Diagnostic radiology is an extremely valuable tool in the practice of veterinary medicine. Basic knowledge of primary exposure factors and their interrelationship are required to consistently produce quality radiographs. This article discusses basic radiation physics and radiation safety guidelines.

Sacral abnormalities—computed tomography versus conventional radiography

Journal of Computed Tomography, 1984
Seventeen examples of different pathologic conditions, including malignant and benign tumors, and inflammatory, traumatic, and congenital lesions involving the sacrum, are presented. The value of computed tomography is compared with that of conventional methods with respect to diagnostic evaluation and clinical management of these patients.

Panoramic Versus Conventional Radiography of Scaphoid Fractures

American Journal of Roentgenology, 2004
The objective of this study was to compare the diagnostic value of panoramic and conventional radiography in the detection of fractures of the carpal scaphoid bone.Panoramic (orthopantomographic) and conventional radiographs of 90 patients with acute or chronic wrist trauma were reviewed retrospectively.

Controversies in conventional radiography in spondyloarthritis

Best Practice & Research Clinical Rheumatology, 2012
Radiographic assessment of spondyloarthritis constitutes the primary imaging modality for diagnostic evaluation although it is insensitive in early disease. Several years are required before definite changes can be seen in the sacroiliac joints, and magnetic resonance imaging is the preferred imaging modality when the clinical presentation suggests ...
