BACKGROUND & OBJECTIVE: Sex estimation is a critical aspect of forensic expertise. Some special anatomical structures, such as the maxillary sinus, can still maintain integrity in harsh environmental conditions and may be served as a basis for sex es...
Accurate paranasal sinus segmentation is essential for reducing surgical complications through surgical guidance systems. This study introduces a multiclass Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) segmentation model by comparing four 3D U-Net variations-n...
INTRODUCTION: The determination of identity factors such as age and sex has gained significance in both criminal and civil cases. Paranasal sinuses like frontal and maxillary sinuses, are resistant to trauma and can aid profiling. We developed a deep...
OBJECTIVES: To investigate the accuracy and reliability of deep learning in automatic graft material segmentation after maxillary sinus augmentation (SA) from cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) images.
BACKGROUND: Pathological maxillary sinus would affect implant treatment and even result in failure of maxillary sinus lift and implant surgery. However, the maxillary sinus abnormalities are challenging to be diagnosed through CBCT images, especially...

PURPOSE: Continuum robots (CRs) have been developed for maxillary sinus surgery (MSS) in recent years. However, due to the anatomically curved and narrow pathway of the maxillary sinus and the deformable characteristics of the CR, it is still a chall...
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...
An accurate three-dimensional (3D) segmentation of the maxillary sinus is crucial for multiple diagnostic and treatment applications. Yet, it is challenging and time-consuming when manually performed on a cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) dataset....
