This study was performed to evaluate the reliability of peri-apical
radiographs in determining peri-implant marginal bone level changes. The
STROBE guidelines were followed. Marginal bone levels were measured at the
time of implant insertion using a straight periodontal probe and using peri-apical
radiographs. These intraoperative and radiographic measurements were repeated at
the time of second surgery. All radiographs were analysed by two examiners blinded
to the intraoperative measurements. To standardize the radiographic images, the

Objectives: To evaluate potential relationship between qualitative CT features, quantitative texture analysis (QTA), histology, WHO staging, Masaoka classification and myasthenic syndrome in patients with thymic tumors. Materials and methods: Sixteen patients affected by histologically proven thymic tumors were retrospectively included in the study population. Clinical information, with special regard to myasthenic syndrome and serological positivity of anti-AchR antibodies, were recorded.
