Dental Magnetic Resonance Imaging: Practical insights and evaluation of benefits and drawbacks in dentistry and oral and maxillofacial surgery
No full textDental magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has long been perceived as overly complex, costly, and limited in availability. Despite the numerous advantages of this radiation-free, non-invasive procedure for soft tissue diagnostics in the head and neck region, its imaging capabilities for hard tissue, such as bones and teeth, have thus far remained limited in comparison to conventional X-ray technology. In recent years, however, technological advances have led to a notable enhancement in the image quality and the range of applications of dental MRI. This article presents a comprehensive review of the current literature on the utilization of dental MRI for dentomaxillofacial conditions. The article focusses on novel MRI protocols that have been specifically developed to address the inherent challenges associated with imaging the head and neck region. It also considers the latest technological advances, including innovative coils and the use of low and high-field MR systems. The practical case studies are from the fields of conservative dentistry, prosthodontics, orthodontics, oral surgery, and maxillofacial surgery, demonstrating the theoretical concepts and emphasizing the clinical advantages of dental MRI. In conclusion, dental MRI can be a valuable complement to and, in certain cases, a true alternative to X-ray-based procedures.Dental magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has long been perceived as overly complex, costly, and limited in availability.

Revised consensus guidelines for the use of cone-beam computed tomography/ digital volume tomography: Results from a consensus process organized by the Swiss association of dentomaxillofacial radiology
No full textCone beam computed tomography (CBCT) is established in dentistry for about 20 years. Technique evolved and indications clarified since then and since the Swiss consensus guidelines regarding CBCT were published in 2014 and 2015. Therefore, the Swiss association of dentomaxillofacial radiology decided to initiate the process of updating these guidelines by forming a consensus group divided into a core group responsible for the whole process and an approval group responsible for specific clinical matters. The manuscript outlines the revised guidelines in a practical way and is divided along the different specialties and clinical fields of dentistry. In result the guidelines are updated regarding reconstructive dentistry, orthodontics, geriatric dentistry, temporomandibular joint disorders, maxillofacial traumatology, benign and malignant tumors, assessment and detection of dental foci and endodontic infections and apical surgery. Overall, it can be stated that CBCT is utilized more consistently and somewhat broader than ten years ago. Today CBCT is well established and has proven benefits if indicated and analyzed precisely. Therefore, it might very well become more and more standard in dental radiology

From Civil War to Red Bulls: Overcoming Negotiation Deadlocks in South Sudan
No full textThe following reflection from just over a decade ago (2013-2014) seeks to outline the unique and challenging situation of a negotiation involving multiple parties – precipitated by the unauthorized landing of a large cargo plane and detention of pilots and crew – in what remains the world’s newest country, South Sudan. Not only did this negotiation occur in the context of an ongoing civil war, but also in a remote, rural location which hosted a large, international organization, featuring hundreds of staff, patients, families, troops and military leaders. All of this led to a complex mix of procedural and cultural intricacies, which led to some difficulties but ultimately provided further opportunities to work towards a mutually beneficial outcome. 
Die letzte Analyse-Stunde – und was dann?
No full textIn der psychoanaytischen Literatur existieren nach meiner Kenntnis keine kasuistischen Beiträge zur letzten Stunde, und die theoretischen Überlegungen zur letzten Stunde sowie zur postanalytischen Beziehung sind sehr überschaubar. Auch in der Ausbildung wird das Thema bestenfalls gestreift. In den mir bekannten Curricula der deutschen Institute werden keine Seminare zum Thema Abschied aufgeführt. Die vorliegende Arbeit setzt sich mit der Terminsetzung der letzten Stunde, der gemeinsamem Abschiedsgestaltung und Gestaltung des postanalytischen Kontakts auseinander. Dabei wird auch das Konzept der Übertragungsneurose, deren «Heilung» und die Auflösung der Übertragung als Gradmesser für das Ende des analytischen Prozesses kritisch hinterfragt. In der Erfahrung der Analysewirklichkeit «überlebt» eine Bereitschaft zu positiver, aber auch negativer Übertragung, die auch bei einer Wiederbegegnung nach Jahren anspringt. Im Wie der gemeinsamen Abschiedsgestaltung soll gezeigt werden, wie das Übertragungsfeld dieses Prozesses durch die inneren Arbeitsmodelle von beiden Protagonisten gemeinsam gestaltet werden.
In Fallvignetten zur letzten Stunde wird dargestellt, wie komplex die letzten Stunden sein können, aber auch wie unspektakulär sie manchmal sind. Sie entstammen eigener Erfahrung als Behandler, Supervisor und Dozent für Workshops zu diesem Thema. Weiter will ich auf die Gestaltung postanalytischer Beziehungen eingehen. Unser «Arbeitsmodell Abschied» wird mit dem Wissen um den dynamischen Entwicklungsprozess in den ersten Jahren nach einer analytischen Psychotherapie deutlich verändert. Dieses Wissen erleichtert vielleicht auch das Abtrauern von Grössenphantasien auf beiden Seiten der Couch, was in der Psychoanalyse bis zur letzten vereinbarten Stunde alles hätte erreicht werden müssen
