    Abstract

    This paper describes a microradiographic method for measuring mineral concentration in a transversal geometry with thick (= 0.96) for both enamel and dentin. The slopes of the regression lines were between 0.99 and 1.02 except for Delta Z in dentine, which was 0.89. It was concluded that T-WIM is a suitable method for TMR on thick samples.
