Three-dimensional multifractal analysis of trabecular bone under clinical computed tomography

Three-dimensional microstructure of human alveolar trabecular bone: a micro-computed tomography study

PURPOSE The microstructural characteristics of trabecular bone were identified using micro-computed tomography (micro-CT), in order to develop a potential strategy for implant surface improvement to facilitate osseointegration. METHODS Alveolar bone specimens from the cadavers of 30 humans were scanned by high-resolution micro-CT and reconstructed. Volumes of interest chosen within the jaw we...

Detection of trabecular bone microdamage by micro-computed tomography.

Microdamage is an important component of bone quality and affects bone remodeling. Improved techniques to assess microdamage without the need for histological sectioning would provide insight into the role of microdamage in trabecular bone strength by allowing the spatial distribution of damage within the trabecular microstructure to be measured. Nineteen cylindrical trabecular bone specimens w...

Three-dimensional Cone-beam Computed Tomography Volume Registration for the Analysis of Alveolar Bone Changes

Three-dimensional reconstruction of New Zealand rabbit antebrachium by multidetector computed tomography

The aim of this study was to reveal biometric peculiarities of New Zealand white rabbit antebrachium (radius and ulna) by means of three-dimensional (3D) reconstruction of multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) images. Under general anesthesia, the antebrachiums of a total of sixteen rabbits of both sexes were scanned with a general diagnostic MDCT. Biometric measurements of the reconstructed...

three-dimensional assessment of the nasopalatine canal and the surrounding bone using cone-beam computed tomography

background and aims. because of increasing concerns about surgeries in the anterior maxilla, including implant placement, it is necessary to examine the morphology of the nasopalatine canal and its surrounding bones. this study aimed to analyze the shape and position of the nasopalatine canal and incisive foramen using cone-beam computed tomography (cbct). materials and methods. cbct images of ...
