ABSTRACTIn X-ray cone-beam tomography, the only planar source trajectory that does not produce incomplete data is the infinite line. Such a source trajectory is not experimentally possible. To ensure complete data acquisition with cone-beam radiographs, a set of nonplanar trajectories has been studied. Among the trajectories proposed in the literature, a simple one is a set of two circular trajectories with intersection of the two trajectory axes. The angle between the two axes is related to the maximum aperture of the cone beam. We propose here an exact method for performing this reconstruction using the 3-D Radon transform of the object. The modulation transfer function of this algorithm remains identical to that for the central slice of reconstruction in a single circular trajectory. The relative mean square error for density stays within 2% for an aperture of ±30°. With a single circular trajectory, the relative mean square error may reach 20% at the same aperture. With a double circular trajectory, horizontal artifacts are nearly suppressed.

Citra merupakan gambaran tentang karakteristik suatu obyek menurut kondisi variabel tertentu. Pengolahan citra bertujuan memperbaiki kualitas citra agar mudah diinterpretasi oleh manusia atau mesin (dalam hal ini komputer). Terdapat beberapa operasi di dalam pengolahan citra, salah satunya adalah perbaikan kontras yang pada dasarnya biasa digunakan untuk memunculkan bagian-bagian yang tidak terlihat (hidden feature) pada citra. Hasil citra dari rontgen yang tidak selalu memiliki kualitas citra yang baik, seperti halnya hasil citra x-ray yang terlalu gelap atau ada bagian tulang yang terlihat samar sehingga gambar tidak terlihat jelas. Pada penelitian ini teknik peningkatan citra dengan perbaikan kontras menggunakan metode berbasis Histrogram Equalization. Pada citra medis tersebut dan juga menunjukkan kinerja hasil pengukuran kontrol eror menggunakan Mean Square Error menjelaskan bahwa metode  Contrast Limited Adaptive Histogram Equalization lebih baik dibandingkan dengan metode Histrogram Equalization dan metode Adaptive Histogram Equalization.

Objectives/Hypothesis Phleboliths in venous malformations (VM) of the head and neck are often observed and may cause significant symptoms. Only a few articles refer to the morphology and composition of the phleboliths in VM. The objective of this study was to analyse and to demonstrate their composition and morphology. Methods Patients with VM presenting to a vascular anomalies centre during a three-year period were identified. The incidence of phleboliths was analysed followed by morphological and structural analysis with cone beam tomography and X-ray diffraction. Results Phleboliths were identified in 28/98 patients with VM of the head and neck. Seven patients underwent conventional surgery to reduce the volume of the VM or to remove the phleboliths, which were localized in the cheek (3 cases), submandibular region (2 cases), infrahyoidal neck or upper eyelid (1 case each). The structural analysis showed that more advanced lamination and an increasing radiopacity of the cortex was observed in larger phleboliths. X-ray powder diffraction analysis revealed that the main constituent in the pulverized phleboliths was carbonate-fluorohydroxylapatite. Conclusion This study shows in a vivid way that phleboliths from VM of the head and neck area show a laminar structure and consist of apatite, without any indication of differences in their chemical composition. Treatment of localized intravascular coagulopathy in VM might be able to prevent the formation and the progression of phleboliths. Hypothetically, another option might be lithotripsy.

The aim of the study is to create an image processing system, which allows dentists to create tooth surface automatically. X-rays images of jaws from the cone beam tomography or the spiral computed tomography and images from the micro-computed tomography are the initial data for processing. Example of using the combination of optical and x-ray images in the dentistry is described. Also, it was shown how to use the microcomputed tomography method to plan the placement of orthopedic structures on the lost teeth sites.
