Automated landmark-based mid-sagittal plane: reliability for 3-dimensional mandibular asymmetry assessment on head CT scans.

Clinical oral investigations
OBJECTIVE: The determination of the mid-sagittal plane (MSP) on three-dimensional (3D) head imaging is key to the assessment of facial asymmetry. The aim of this study was to evaluate the reliability of an automated landmark-based MSP to quantify man...

Fully automated evaluation of condylar remodeling after orthognathic surgery in skeletal class II patients using deep learning and landmarks.

Journal of dentistry
OBJECTIVE: Condylar remodeling is a key prognostic indicator in maxillofacial surgery for skeletal class II patients. This study aimed to develop and validate a fully automated method leveraging landmark-guided segmentation and registration for effic...

Digital and artificial intelligence-assisted cephalometric training effectively enhanced students' landmarking accuracy in preclinical orthodontic education.

BMC oral health
BACKGROUND: Digital cephalometric analyses, including those assisted by artificial intelligence (AI), are widely used in clinical practice. Similarly, computer-assisted learning has demonstrated teaching outcomes comparable to those of traditional me...

Automatic identification of hard and soft tissue landmarks in cone-beam computed tomography via deep learning with diversity datasets: a methodological study.

BMC oral health
BACKGROUND: Manual landmark detection in cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) for evaluating craniofacial structures relies on medical expertise and is time-consuming. This study aimed to apply a new deep learning method to predict and locate soft an...

Deep learning based quantitative cervical vertebral maturation analysis.

Head & face medicine
OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to enhance clinical diagnostics for quantitative cervical vertebral maturation (QCVM) staging with precise landmark localization. Existing methods are often subjective and time-consuming, while deep learning alternatives ...

Artificial intelligence-assisted identification and assessment of mandibular asymmetry on panoramic radiography.

American journal of orthodontics and dentofacial orthopedics : official publication of the American Association of Orthodontists, its constituent societies, and the American Board of Orthodontics
INTRODUCTION: Mandibular symmetry is crucial in orthodontic diagnosis and treatment planning. This study aimed to establish an artificial intelligence (AI) method to automatically and accurately identify mandibular landmarks and assess asymmetry via ...

CephTransX: An attention enhanced feature fusion network leveraging neighborhood rough set approach for cephalometric landmark prediction.

Computers in biology and medicine
The convergence of medical imaging, computer vision, and orthodontics has made automatic cephalometric landmark detection a pivotal area of research. Accurate cephalometric analysis is crucial in orthodontics, orthognathic and maxillofacial surgery f...

Accuracy of cephalometric landmark identification by artificial intelligence platform versus expert orthodontist in unilateral cleft palate patients: A retrospective study.

International orthodontics
OBJECTIVE: The primary aim of the study was to evaluate the accuracy of automated artificial intelligence (AI) cephalometric landmark identification in cleft patients and compare it to landmarks identified by an expert orthodontist. The secondary obj...

Deep learning-based automated guide for defining a standard imaging plane for developmental dysplasia of the hip screening using ultrasonography: a retrospective imaging analysis.

BMC medical informatics and decision making
BACKGROUND: We aimed to propose a deep-learning neural network model for automatically detecting five landmarks during a two-dimensional (2D) ultrasonography (US) scan to develop a standard plane for developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) screening...

Adjacent point aided vertebral landmark detection and Cobb angle measurement for automated AIS diagnosis.

Computerized medical imaging and graphics : the official journal of the Computerized Medical Imaging Society
Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis (AIS) is a prevalent structural deformity disease of human spine, and accurate assessment of spinal anatomical parameters is essential for clinical diagnosis and treatment planning. In recent years, significant progres...
