Digital bitewing radiography, phosphor plate (PSP) vs Histological validation of dental tissues (gold standard)
Diagnostic accuracy for proximal caries detection (caries detection level) · Extracted permanent posterior teeth with proximal surfaces (in vitro)
Under in vitro conditions, phosphor-plate digital bitewing radiography had a summary ROC AUC of 0.82 for proximal caries detection at the caries detection level; ungraded.
