Radiological anatomy is where your human anatomy knowledge meets clinical practice.
It gathers several non-invasive methods for visualizing the inner body structures.
The most frequently used imaging modalities are radiography (X-ray), computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)..
Dental X-rays (radiographs) are images of your teeth that your dentist uses to evaluate your oral health.
These X-rays are used with low levels of radiation to capture images of the interior of your teeth and gums.
These X-rays can help your dentist to identify problems like cavities, tooth decay, and impacted teeth..
Radioanatomy (x-ray anatomy) is anatomy discipline which involves the study of anatomy through the use of radiographic films.
The x-ray film represents two-dimensional image of a three-dimensional object due to the summary projection of different anatomical structures onto a planar surface..
Contemporary dental radiography comprises intraoral radiography, extraoral radiography and cone-beam computed tomography
Intraoral radiographs are all those taken with an image detector (called also image sensor or image receptor) placed inside patient’s oral cavity
As with plain radiography, guidelines have been established to aid the dental practitioner using their best clinical judgment
In all cases, the smallest possible field of view, the smallest voxel size, the lowest mA setting, and the shortest exposure time in conjunction with the pulsed exposure mode should be used
