Assessment of Accessory Mental Foramen by Cone-Beam Computed Tomography
Introduction: Any foramen in the buccal surface of mandibular body that transfers mental nerve and vessels except mental foramen, is called Accessory Mental Foramen (AMF). The objective of this study was the determination of the AMF using cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT). Materials and Methods: this descriptive study was done on 180 CBCT projections which were selected by convenience samp...
متن کاملPrevalence of Idiopathic Osteosclerosis on Cone Beam Computed Tomography Images
Objectives: This study was performed to investigate the prevalence of idiopathic osteosclerosis on cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) images of patients. Methods: In this descriptive, cross-sectional study, 240 CBCT scans of patients (125 women, 115 men) referred to a private oral and maxillofacial radiology clinic in Tehran in 2013 were selected and evaluated. Presence of idiopathic osteosc...
متن کاملeffect of exposure parameters on metal artifacts in cone beam computed tomography
objectives: the aim of this study was to assess the effect of tube current, kilovoltage peak (kvp), metal type, and the position of metal objects on metal artifacts in cone-beam computed tomography (cbct) images. materials and methods: titanium and cobalt-chromium rods were fabricated and placed in a dry human mandible. samples were scanned using a promax 3d cbct unit with different milli-amper...
متن کاملTarget-specific optimization of four-dimensional cone beam computed tomography.
PURPOSE Under-sampling artifacts are a major problem in four-dimensional cone-beam computed tomography (4D-CBCT) and may compromise evaluation of target motion. Several studies have addressed scan parameter selection for minimizing under-sampling artifacts; however, the role of the target characteristics in scan parameter selection has not been investigated. In this work, the authors evaluated ...
متن کاملMinimal radiation exposure with cone- beam computed tomography
dose because, irrespective of the technology being used in individual cases, the benefits and risks of taking an X-ray need to be assessed. Whereas modern 3D imaging systems, such as computer tomography (CT) or conebeam computed tomography (CBCT), undoubtedly have brought significant advantages to dental diagnostics, they are attended by a higher radiation dose compared to 2D X-ray technology. ...
