Reducing the radiation dose will cause severe image noise and artifacts, and degradation of image quality will also affect the accuracy of diagnosis. To find a solution, we comprise a 2D and 3D concatenating convolutional encoder-decoder (CCE-3D) and...
The segmentation of medical and dental images is a fundamental step in automated clinical decision support systems. It supports the entire clinical workflow from diagnosis, therapy planning, intervention, and follow-up. In this paper, we propose a no...
Diagnosing and treating apical periodontitis (AP) in an attempt to preserve the natural dentition, and to prevent the direct and indirect systemic effects of this condition, is the major goal in endodontics. Considering that AP is frequently asymptom...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Analyzing three-dimensional cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) images has become an indispensable procedure for diagnosis and treatment planning of orthodontic patients. Artificial intelligence, especially deep-learning t...
PURPOSE: Segmenting organs in cone-beam CT (CBCT) images would allow to adapt the radiotherapy based on the organ deformations that may occur between treatment fractions. However, this is a difficult task because of the relative lack of contrast in C...
Purpose This study aimed to develop an artificial intelligence (AI) model to support the determination of an appropriate implant drilling protocol using cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) images.Methods Anonymized CBCT images were obtained from 60 ...
Recently, dental cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) methods have been improved to significantly reduce radiation dose while maintaining image resolution with minimal equipment cost. In low-dose CBCT environments, metallic inserts such as implants, ...
The detection of maxillary sinus wall is important in dental fields such as implant surgery, tooth extraction, and odontogenic disease diagnosis. The accurate segmentation of the maxillary sinus is required as a cornerstone for diagnosis and treatmen...
