3D facial landmarks: Inter-operator variability of manual annotation
BACKGROUND Manual annotation of landmarks is a known source of variance, which exist in all fields of medical imaging, influencing the accuracy and interpretation of the results. However, the variability of human facial landmarks is only sparsely addressed in the current literature as opposed to e.g. the research fields of orthodontics and cephalometrics. We present a full facial 3D annotation ...
متن کاملSampling-Based Ensemble Segmentation against Inter-operator Variability
Inconsistency and a lack of reproducibility are commonly associated with semi-automated segmentation methods. In this study, we developed an ensemble approach to improve reproducibility and applied it to glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) brain tumor segmentation on T1-weigted contrast enhanced MR volumes. The proposed approach combines samplingbased simulations and ensemble segmentation into a sing...
متن کاملCuring Efficacy of Light Emitting Diodes of Dental Curing Units
BACKGROUND AND AIMS The aim of the present study was to compare the efficacy of quartz tungsten halogen (QTH) and light emitting diode (LED) curing lights on polymerization of resin composite. MATERIALS AND METHODS A hybrid resin composite was used to prepare samples which were cured using two QTH and ten LED light curing sources. Twelve groups, each containing ten samples, were prepared usin...
متن کاملInter-Operator Variability in Perfusion Assessment of Tumors in MRI Using Automated AIF Detection
A method is presented for the calculation of perfusion parameters in dynamic contrast enhanced MRI. This method requires identification of enhancement curves for both tumor tissue and plasma. Inter-operator variability in the derived rate constant between plasma and extra-cellular extra-vascular space is assessed in both canine and human subjects using semi-automated tumor margin identification...
متن کاملImproving light-curing instruction in dental school.
Delivering an inadequate amount of light to a light-cured resin will result in a resin that is inadequately cured. This study measured the radiant exposure that students delivered to a simulated restoration to determine if instruction with immediate feedback increased the amount of light they delivered. The amount of light (radiant exposure in J/cm(2)) delivered to a simulated restoration by si...
