In the design of dental multifunctional Cone Beam Computed Tomography, the linear scanning strategy not only saves equipment cost, but also avoids the demand for patients to be repositioned when acquiring lateral cranial sequence images. In order to obtain panoramic images, we propose a local normalized cross-correlation stitching algorithm based on Gaussian Mixture Model. Firstly, the Block-Matching and 3D filtering algorithm is used to remove quantum and impulse noises according to the characteristics of X-ray images; Then, the segmentation of the irrelevant region and the extraction of the region of interest are performed by Gaussian Mixture Model; The locally normalized cross-relation is used to complete the registration with the multi-resolution strategy based on wavelet transform and Particle Swarm Optimization algorithm; Finally, image fusion is achieved by the weighted smoothing fusion algorithm. The experimental results show that the panoramic image obtained by this method has significant performance in both subjective vision and objective quality evaluation and can be applied to preoperative diagnosis of clinical dental deformity and postoperative effect evaluation.

Abstract Automatic Segmentation of dental cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) images is challenging due to the intensity of the teeth that have low level intensity. In this paper we proposes a new method for automatic teeth segmentation in slices of CBCT images based on level let method using morphology operators and polynomial fitting. Morphology operators are used to construct the Region of Interest (ROI) area of dental objects in the image slice. ROI is used to focus the analysis process on areas of dental objects which generally have a polynomial pattern distribution. Polynomial fitting is obtained to estimation arc of teeth structure in CBCT images. Level Set is implemented to evolve the ROI to obtain the contours of dental objects. Comparison between proposed method result and the ground truth images shows that the method gives best average accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity value of 99.02%, 95.32%, 99.09%, respectively. This value that the proposed method is promising for accurate segmentation of the entire tooth form on CBCT images.

In this article, we evaluate the effectiveness of Cone Beam Computed Tomography, through a case study, in assessing the complication of intracranial bleeding during an endovascular treatment of brain arteriovenous malformation when compared to Multislice-Detector Computed Tomography performed immediately after the procedure. The image quality of Cone Beam Computed Tomography has enough diagnostic value in differentiating between haemorrhage, embolic materials and the arteriovenous malformation nidus to facilitate physicians to decide for further management of the patient.
