Abstract Objective The aim of this study was to compare the trabecular bone microstructures of anterior and posterior edentulous regions of human mandible using cone-beam CT (CBCT) and micro CT (µCT).Materials and methods Twenty volumes of interests consisting of six anterior and fourteen posterior edentulous regions were obtained from human mandibular cadavers. A CBCT system with a resolution of 80 µm (3D Accuitomo 170, J. Morita, Kyoto, Japan) and a µCT system with a resolution of 35 µm (SkyScan 1173, Kontich, Belgium) were used to scan the mandibles. Three structural parameters namely, trabecular number (Tb.N), trabecular thickness (Tb.Th), and trabecular separation (Tb.Sp) were analysed using CTAn software (v 1.11, SkyScan, Kontich, Belgium). For each system, the measurements obtained from anterior and posterior regions were tested using independent sample t-test. Subsequently, all measurements between systems were tested using paired t-test.Results In CBCT, all parameters of the anterior and posterior mandible showed no significant differences (p > 0.05). However, µCT showed a significant different of Tb.Th (p = 0.023) between anterior and posterior region. Regardless of regions, the measurements obtained using both imaging systems were significantly different (p ≤ 0.021) for Tb.Th and Tb.N.Conclusions The current study demonstrated that only the variation of Tb.Th between anterior and posterior edentulous region of mandible can be detected using micro CT. In addition, CBCT is less feasible than micro CT in assessing trabecular bone microstructures at both regions.

Abstract Background The aim of this study was to compare the trabecular bone microstructures of anterior and posterior edentulous regions of human mandible using cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) and micro computed tomography (µCT). Methods Twenty volumes of interests consisting of six anterior and fourteen posterior edentulous regions were obtained from human mandibular cadavers. A CBCT system with a resolution of 80 µm (3D Accuitomo 170, J. Morita, Kyoto, Japan) and a µCT system with a resolution of 35 µm (SkyScan 1173, Kontich, Belgium) were used to scan the mandibles.

Subsequently, all measurements between systems were tested using paired t-test. Results In CBCT, all parameters of the anterior and posterior mandible showed no significant differences (p > 0.05). However, µCT showed a significant different of Tb.Th (p = 0.023) between anterior and posterior region. Regardless of regions, the measurements obtained using both imaging systems were significantly different (p ≤ 0.021) for Tb.Th and Tb.N.

Abstract Three-dimensional reconstruction for image-guidance in orthopaedic surgery necessitates a high degree of geometrical precision but not necessary structure details. With the aim to reduce as much as possible the dose, a cone beam CT prototype was tested with decreasing intensities, the number of projections or different angular range. We tested two methods of reconstruction: classical Feldkamp-Davis-Kress (FDK) reconstruction and the Simultaneous Algebraic Reconstruction Technic with Total Variation (SART-TV). Based on this protocol, on a knee cadaveric specimen, we combined qualitative assessment performed by radiologists and orthopedic surgeons, objective metrics of image quality such as signal-to-noise ratio, or related to bone geometric contour, grey level restitution and texture of trabecular bone, and finally the quality of joint space segmentation. Objective indicators related to signal-to-noise ratio, the quality of geometry and segmentation have shown better results for SART-TV than FDK in case of decrease projections number and angular range. On the contrary, qualitative assessment, and indexes about grey level restitution and textural quality of trabecular bone produced the best results for FDK reconstruction. These results showed that SART-TV reconstruction has a good capability to restore the geometry in case of low dose protocol and consequently could be a good candidate for orthopaedic surgery.
