Thesis (M.Sc.D.)--Boston University, Henry M. Goldman School of Graduate Dentistry, 1988 (Endodontics) / Bibliography : leaves 69-75. / Stereoradiographs have been available to dentists since the early 1900s; however, they have never gained widespread acceptance or usage. The complexity of the procedures necessary for taking stereoradiographs has been a deterrent to acceptance of the technique.
For this reason a free hand method of taking stereoradiographs has been devised, during which two exposures of dental radiographs are made, mounted for viewing, and viewed in the stereoscope.
Three evaluators reviewed the stereoradiograph slides and judged them for three-dimensional effect. They found that over 97% of the slides exhibited a three-dimensional result.
This free hand stereoradiograph technique may lend itself to generalized acceptance by dentists.
