Assessment of intraoral image artifacts related to photostimulable phosphor plates in a dentomaxillofacial radiology department

Conclusion: The percentage of images with artifacts in the 6th month was lower than that during the 1st month. More significantly, the lowest percentage was obtained 1-year after the initial imaging, owing to the increase in familiarity with the system. Understanding the reasons for the image artifacts and studying ways of preventing are of high clinical importance.
