The purpose of the paper was radiodensitometric evaluation of hard tissues of roots and alveolar bone of endodontically treated teeth with clinically detected chronic periapical inflammatory changes. The material consisted of 139 digital intraoral radiograms of endodontically treated teeth with chronic periapical changes: 54 teeth with granulomatous inflammation, 62 with fibrous changes and 23 teeth with purulent lesions. There was discussed the value of digital radiography and radiodensitometric measurements in cases of periapical inflammations of endodontically treated teeth. It was concluded that radiodensitometric measurements allowed detailed examinations of inflammatory changes at the apices of endodontically treated teeth. Digital radiography is a valuable and objective tool in diagnosis of periapical changes, monitoring of the course of endodontic treatment as well as in follow-up after such treatment. At the same time it allows reduction of ionising radiation dose, thus decreasing diagnostic risks to a patient.
本文的目的是对经牙髓治疗且临床上检测到有慢性根尖周炎症改变的牙齿的牙根硬组织和牙槽骨进行放射密度测定评估。材料包括139张经牙髓治疗且有慢性根尖周改变的牙齿的数字化口腔内X光片：54颗有肉芽肿性炎症的牙齿，62颗有纤维性改变的牙齿，以及23颗有脓性病变的牙齿。文中讨论了数字化放射成像和放射密度测定在经牙髓治疗牙齿的根尖周炎症病例中的价值。得出的结论是，放射密度测定能够对经牙髓治疗牙齿的根尖部炎症改变进行详细检查。数字化放射成像在根尖周改变的诊断、牙髓治疗过程的监测以及治疗后的随访中是一种有价值且客观的工具。同时，它能够降低电离辐射剂量，从而降低对患者的诊断风险。
