Optical Polarimetric Detection for Dental Hard Tissue Diseases Characterization

Abstract: Dental enamel constitutes the outer layer of a crown of teeth and grows nearly parallel. This unique nanostructure makes enamel possess birefringence properties. Currently, there is still no appropriate clinical solution to examine dental hard tissue diseases. Therefore, we developed an optical polarization imaging system for diagnosing dental calculus, caries, and cracked tooth syndrome. By obtaining Stokes signals reflected from samples, Mueller images were constructed and analyzed using Lu-Chipman decomposi… Show more

“…Based on the optical birefringence characteristics of the tooth surface [100] ,Tien YH et al [101] constructed an optical polarization imaging system and used this system to detect the excised teeth with cracks.The results show that the system can preliminarily detect the cracks,but the detection results are not completely consistent with the actual depth on the tissue section.…”

“…In the last decades, there is an increased interest in the use of imaging polarimeters for material classification [ 11 , 12 , 13 ]. The technique has been employed in remote sensing [ 14 ], astronomy [ 15 ], aerospace and defence [ 16 ], biomedical applications [ 17 , 18 , 19 ], and industrial manufacturing [ 20 , 21 ]. Polarimeters can provide partial- or full-polarization information about the captured incoming light, depending on the optical elements employed and the imaging system configuration.…”
