Clinical performance of the near-infrared imaging system VistaCam iX Proxi for detection of approximal enamel lesions

摘要

Objectives/Aims:Apart from the visual detection of caries, X-rays can be taken for detection of approximal lesions. The Proxi head of VistaCam iX intraoral camera system uses near-infrared light (NIR) to enable caries detection in approximal surfaces. The aim of this study was to evaluate the performance of the NIR for the detection of approximal enamel lesions by comparison with radiographic findings.
