Abstract:Due to the lack of standardized 3D cephalometric analytic methodology, 2D cephalograms synthesized from 3D cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) volumes are widely used for cephalometric analysis in dental CBCT systems. However, compared with conventional X-ray film based cephalograms, such synthetic cephalograms lack image contrast and resolution, which impairs cephalometric landmark identification. In addition, the radiation dose during the scan for 3D reconstruction causes potential health risks. In this wor… Show more
