Simulated increased soft tissue thickness artefactually decreases trabecular bone score: a phantom study
BACKGROUND Trabecular bone score (TBS), which has been proposed to be used in complementary with bone mineral density (BMD) to improve the assessment of fracture risk, is negatively associated with body mass index (BMI). The effect of soft tissue, which is expected to be thicker in subjects with high BMI, on TBS was studied using three scan types: Hologic with fast array mode (Hfa), Hologic wit...
متن کاملSoft-tissue and cortical-bone thickness at orthodontic implant sites.
INTRODUCTION To obtain sufficient stability of implants, the thickness of the soft tissue and the cortical bone in the placement site must be considered. However, the literature contains few anatomical studies of orthodontic implants. METHODS To measure soft-tissue and cortical-bone thicknesses, maxillae from 23 Korean cadavers were decalcified, and buccopalatal cross-sectional specimens were...
متن کاملAn instrumented bone/soft tissue phantom designed to mimic HIFU treatments of bone
Background/introduction Clinically, HIFU exposures of bone are used to palliate pain from primary or secondary bone tumours. Such tumours weaken bone structure and render the patient susceptible to bone fracture. Ultrasound metrology for bone exposures is extremely challenging. The ultrasound beam is strongly reflected at the bone surface, with rapid surface absorption of sound entering the cor...
متن کاملReduced trabecular bone mineral density and cortical thickness accompanied by increased outer bone circumference in metacarpal bone of rheumatoid arthritis patients: a cross-sectional study
INTRODUCTION The objective of this study was to assess three-dimensional bone geometry and density at the epiphysis and shaft of the third meta-carpal bone of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients in comparison to healthy controls with the novel method of peripheral quantitative computed tomography (pQCT). METHODS PQCT scans were performed in 50 female RA patients and 100 healthy female controls...
متن کاملcorrelation between bone and soft tissue thickness in maxillary anterior teeth
objectives: the purpose of this study was to determine buccal bone and soft tissue thicknesses and their correlation in the maxillary anterior region using cone beam computed tomography (cbct). materials and methods: in this cross sectional study, 330 sound maxillary incisors in 60 patients with a mean age of 37.5 years were assessed by cbct scans. for better visualization of soft tissue, patie...
