Automated segmentation of dental CBCT image with prior-guided sequential random forests

Abstract: Purpose: Cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) is an increasingly utilized imaging modality for the diagnosis and treatment planning of the patients with craniomaxillofacial (CMF) deformities. Accurate segmentation of CBCT image is an essential step to generate 3D models for the diagnosis and treatment planning of the patients with CMF deformities. However, due to the image artifacts caused by beam hardening, imaging noise, inhomogeneity, truncation, and maximal intercuspation, it is difficult to segment the CB… Show more

“…Literature on Tooth Segmentation 1) Classical Methods: Classical image processing methods have been widely studied to achieve tooth segmentation [2], [3], [12], [13]. Several methods including region growing [1], watershed algorithm [2], [3], morphological operators [2], graph-cut-based segmentation [12], template-based registration [8], [9], and random forest classification [13] were implemented. Semiautomatic algorithms with manually annotated cues for easy implementation have also gained popularity [3], [14], [15].…”

“…Certain advances have been reported in the area of algorithms of semi-automated software segmentation of the mandible, as well as the attempts of a digital reconstruction of CT information based PONS Medicinski časopis / PONS Medical Journal REVIEW ARTICLE / PREGLEDNI RAD on a pre-existing mapping of key anatomical points of reference. 23,24 It is our opinion that further research is certainly warranted in the area of CBCT information segmentation which would enable adequate recognition and modeling of anatomical elements in the form of independent 3D objects.…”

“…The age estimation methods require segmentation of tooth components such as enamel, dentine and pulp which are still done manually. The drawback of manual segmentation is that it is tedious, time-consuming, and user-dependent; for example, it takes hours to segment the maxillomandibular region [6]. Therefore, automated age estimation methods have great potential to increase accuracy and repeatability.…”
