Computed tomographic beam-hardening artefacts: mathematical characterization and analysis.
This paper presents a mathematical characterization and analysis of beam-hardening artefacts in X-ray computed tomography (CT). In the field of dental and medical radiography, metal artefact reduction in CT is becoming increasingly important as artificial prostheses and metallic implants become more widespread in ageing populations. Metal artefacts are mainly caused by the beam-hardening of pol...
متن کاملMulti-Material Beam Hardening Correction(MMBHC) in Computed Tomography
In computed tomography (CT), the nonlinear attenuation characteristics of polychromatic X-rays cause beam hardening artifacts in the reconstructed images. State-of-theart methods to correct the beam hardening effect are mostly single material precorrections (e.g. water-precorrection), which are far less efficient when more than one material is present in the field of measurement. The use of tho...
متن کاملcone beam computed tomographic assessment of bifid mandibular condyle
objectives: differential diagnosis of bifid mandibular condyle (bmc) is important, since it may play a role in temporomandibular joint (tmj) dysfunctions and joint symptoms. in addition, radiographic appearance of bmc may mimic tumors and/or fractures. the aim of this study was to evaluate the prevalence and orientation of bmc based on cone beam computed tomography (cbct) scans. materials and...
متن کاملMeta-analysis: computed tomographic colonography.
BACKGROUND Computed tomographic (CT) colonography, also called virtual colonoscopy, is an evolving technology under evaluation as a new method of screening for colorectal cancer. However, its performance as a test has varied widely across studies, and the reasons for these discrepancies are poorly defined. PURPOSE To systematically review the test performance of CT colonography compared to co...
متن کاملbeam hardening artifacts by dental implants: comparison of cone‑beam and 64‑slice computed tomography scanners
background: cone beam computed tomography (cbct) is an alternative to a computed tomography (ct) scan, which is appropriate for a wide range of craniomaxillofacial indications. the long‑term use of metallic materials in dentistry means that artifacts caused by metallic restorations in the oral cavity should be taken into account when utilizing cbct and ct scanners. the aim of this study was to ...
