ABSTRACT
The effects of low level laser treatment(n = 20) on the swelling,pain and the degree of mouth opening after the impacted mandibular third molar extraction were compared with those without laser treatment(n = 20). The results indicate that low level laser can reduce the inflammation of the patients.
ABSTRACT
Objective@#To analyze the absorptive radiation dose of non-target sensitive organs under the NewTomVGi oral and maxillofacial cone-beam CT scanning in different view fields.@*Methods@#The thermoluminescence dosimeter chip was placed in the non-target sensitive organ of the simulated radiology head model, and 6 scanning fields were measured and analyzed (standard resolution: scanning range was 15 cm×15 cm, 15 cm×12 cm, 12 cm×8 cm, 8 cm×8 cm respectively). High definition resolution: the radiation absorption dose of thermoluminescence with the scanning range of 12 cm×8 cm, 8 cm×8 cm, respectively.@*Results@#Under the same resolution, the absorptive dose increased with the expansion of scanning field, and the amount of absorbent during high resolution scanning was higher than that during the standard resolution with the same scanning field.@*Conclusions@#New TomVGi oral and maxillofacial cone-beam CT has sighificant difference in radiation dose in different view fields. The appropriate view field should be selected according to the patient′s clinical needs, so as to reduce unnecessary radiation dose during medical imaging examination.
