Enamel Lesion Parameter Correlations between Polychromatic Micro-CT and TMR.
Enamel Lesion Parameter Correlations between Polychromatic Micro-CT and TMR. J Dent Res. 2012 Apr 3; Authors: Hamba H, Nikaido T, Sadr A, Nakashima S, Tagami J Abstract Transverse microradiography (TMR) is considered as the gold standard technique for the evaluation of enamel lesions. Micro-computed tomography (µCT) has the advantage of non-destructive measurements, but the beam-hardening …
