A clinical study was conducted on 150 approximal surfaces which were positive for caries by fibreoptic transillumination (FOTI), and these approximal surfaces were examined with bitewing radiography. Of these 54.7% and 41.3% were diagnosable through bitewing radiography and clinical examination respectively. And it was clearly understood that FOTI was a reliable method in detecting approximal carious lesions.
对150个经光纤透照(FOTI)显示为邻面龋阳性的邻面进行了一项临床研究,并用咬合翼片X线摄影对这些邻面进行检查。其中,分别通过咬合翼片X线摄影和临床检查可诊断出54.7%和41.3%的病例。并且可以清楚地认识到,光纤透照是检测邻面龋损的一种可靠方法。
