Artefacts in CBCT: a review.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Artefacts are common in today's cone beam CT (CBCT). They are induced by discrepancies between the mathematical modelling and the actual physical imaging process. Since artefacts may interfere with the diagnostic process performed on CBCT data sets, every user should be aware of their presence. This article aims to discuss the most prominent artefacts identified in the scientific literature and review the existing knowledge on these artefacts. We also briefly review the basic three-dimensional (3D) reconstruction concept applied by today's CBCT scanners, as all artefacts are more or less directly related to it.

Effect of patient anxiety on image motion artefacts in CBCT
BACKGROUND Artefacts in images related to patient movement decrease image quality, potentially necessitating re-scanning, which leads to an extra radiation dose for the patient. Thus, avoiding patient motion reduces patient exposure to radiation. The aim of this study was to analyse image motion artefacts (MAs) and how they are affected by patient anxiety during cone beam computed tomography (C...
متن کاملCan Dental Cone Beam Computed Tomography Assess Bone Mineral Density?
Mineral density distribution of bone tissue is altered by active bone modeling and remodeling due to bone complications including bone disease and implantation surgery. Clinical cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) has been examined whether it can assess oral bone mineral density (BMD) in patient. It has been indicated that CBCT has disadvantages of higher noise and lower contrast than conventi...
متن کاملArtefacts in cone beam CT
Cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) is the modern third dimension applied in the field of oral maxillofacial region. With lower radiation dose compared to conventional CT, its applications in dentistry has increased tremendously. Artefacts can seriously degrade the quality of computed tomographic (CBCT) images, sometimes to the point of making them diagnostically unusable. To optimize image qu...
متن کاملComparative Evaluation of the Artefacts Index of Dental Materials on Two-Dimensional Cone-beam Computed Tomography
The aim of the study was to propose the artefact index on cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) images of clinical prosthodontics materials, and to compare the effect of the artefacts on CBCT image clarity of normal oral tissues. Seven spheres of different materials were secured on the centre of a resin baseboard, respectively, and four human molars in vitro were placed at 10 mm front, back, lef...
متن کاملA dual modality of cone beam CT and electrical impedance tomography for lung imaging
Electrical impedance tomography (EIT) is a new and emerging tomographic imaging system, which is able to provide high temporal resolution with low spatial resolution. In past few years, the EIT has been extensively studied for lung monitoring. Cone beam CT (CBCT) is an imaging system used in radiation therapy unit. The CBCT suffers from motion artefacts, making treatment planning inaccurate. Th...
