Summary
Background/Aim: The aim of the present study is to evaluate diagnostic accuracy of two generic image receptors with CMOS and PSP sensors for image quality scoring (IQS), burnout incidences (BI) and cervical widths (CW) with regard to four different exposure times. Material and Methods: 43 incisor teeth within 15 paraffin block models were exposed at 4 different exposure times both for the CMOS and PSP groups, and a total number of 120 images were obtained. All images were evaluated by 3 dentomaxillofacial radiologists via 3 different criteria; IQS, BI, CW. Results: Diagnostic quality scorings between groups displayed statistically significant difference for 0,1; 0,125 and 0,16 SEC exposure times. PSP group revealed higher IQS. For 0,125 and 0,16 seconds exposure times, PSP group showed higher percentages of BI. Average CW were lower in PSP group. Although no statistically significant difference was found between average CW vs. exposure times in the CMOS group; PSP group revealed significant differences among exposure times. We can state that, the PSP system displayed higher image quality so exposure times can be reduced, alas, the same conclusion is not possible with CMOS system used. Conclusions: Image quality perception is higher in PSP system we used, compared with CMOS system. PSP system display more burnout effects with increasing exposure times, while CMOS system is constant.
