Influence of image‐viewers and artifacts on implant length measurements in cone‐beam computed tomography: an in vitro study

Abstract: This preclinical in vitro study compared the accuracy of implant lengths measured in two different image‐viewers, and examined whether implant‐induced artifacts affected the implant length measurements on CBCT images. A resin edentulous mandibular model, with multiple adjacent implants in the posterior segments, was acquired with a CBCT machine. In two different image‐viewers, two observers independently measured the implant length. Vertical measurements on CBCT images were carried out twice at each session, a… Show more

“…Other potential limitations include artefacts related to the presence of titanium implants and the high-resolution CBCT acquisitions. The FOV size and acquisition mode are the settings utilized in our earlier preclinical study [ 14 ]. In the present study, 3/27 CBCT acquisitions presented lower quality images.…”

“…Visible motion artefacts, probably related to the high-resolution protocol requiring longer scan times, making images susceptible to patient movement during acquisition [ 21 ], could have contributed to the maximum 0.6 mm overestimation on CBCT views. Metal and titanium implants produce streak artefacts and beam-hardening artefacts [ 14 , 21 ]. We carefully selected the landmarks (the center of each dental implant) with the on-screen cursor (guided by a computer mouse).…”
