The Bulletin of Tokyo Dental College·2001

Digital imaging revolutionized dentistry, enabling advanced diagnostics. This review covers intraoral systems, image acquisition, and radiation dose effects on caries detection accuracy.

Area of Science:

  • Medical Imaging
  • Dental Technology
  • Radiology

Background:

  • Computed tomography (CT) in the 1970s marked the shift from analog to digital medical imaging.
  • Specialized equipment for digital image processing, acquisition, and archiving emerged during this era.
  • Digital imaging systems specifically for dentistry were developed in the late 1980s.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review the enabling technologies of digital imaging systems in dentistry.
  • To focus on intraoral digital imaging systems and their image acquisition concepts.
  • To analyze radiation dose variations and their impact on the diagnostic accuracy of caries detection.

Main Methods:

  • Review of enabling technologies for digital dental imaging.
  • Focus on intraoral imaging systems and acquisition concepts.
