   Abstract:	The precision of the method of microdensitometry on panoramic radiographs (PR), using a five step copper stepwedge, was examined. Two PRs, one after the other, were made for each of the six examined patients. All the PRs were digitised. Gray levels were measured on the stepwedge and on the region of the interest. Measured gray level values were expressed in equivalents of the stepwedge thickness using 3rd degree polynomial. Comparing the values of the equivalents in the region of interest on the first and the second digitised image of the same patient, the differences were within 10%. The results revealed that the method detects mineral bone changes, which surpass more than 10% of the density on PR.

   Abstract:	The precision of a method of microdensitometry on digitized images, using six step copper stepwedge (SW), was studied. Two retroalveolar radiographs were made for each of the six examined patients. Lynotype-Hell (8-bit, 300DPI) transparent scanner was used to scan the radiographs. All the images were, prior to the measurements, inverted. The digitized radiographs were saved in the Issa-program for archiving radiographs, while the optical density (OD) was measured by using software Scion image for 6 steps of the SW and 7 regions of interest (ROI). The gray levels (GLs) were converted into the ODs for both images by formula OD = -log Ii /255, where Ii = measured intensity. ODs of each step of the SW were correlated with the copper thickness of the related step and the regression formula was thus derived from the relationship of the OD and the actual thickness of the related step through the third degree polynomial function. The results revealed that the method detects mineral bone changes, i.e. OD changes, which surpass more than 7% of density on the images.
