Abstract:
The line between smartphone and Digital single-lens reflex (DSLR) cameras is becoming less clear, especially in dental photography. This study assessed the knowledge of prosthodontic postgraduate students regarding image quality from both camera types. Approximately 300 students participated in a questionnaire that covered their knowledge, practices and opinions on DSLR versus smartphone photography. Data were analyzed using simple percentages. The results showed that DSLR cameras are still preferred for dental photography among these students.

Phase Contrast and Differential Interference Contrast Microscopy
In-phase-contrast microscopes, interference between light directly passing through a cell and light refracted by cellular components is used to create high-contrast, high-resolution images without staining. It is the oldest and simplest type of microscope that creates an image by altering the wavelengths of light rays passing through the specimen. Altered wavelength paths are created using an annular stop in the condenser. The annular stop produces a hollow cone of...
