Overview

Effect of Segmentation Techniques (Manual versus Semiautomatic) on the Accuracy of the Reconstructed Mandibular Condyle using CBCT

It will be used to segment the mandibular condyle and asses its volumetric and linear measurements. Therefore, the accuracy of the segmentation techniques of the mandibular condyle will be determined

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

Linear assessment of the condyles

Linear measurements will be calculated in millimeters by Built-in measuring tool (ruler) in the software + digital caliper on the dry mandibles

Time frame: one month

Secondary Outcomes

Volumetric assessment of the condyles

For volumetric measurements, the volume of the segmented condyle, either by manual or semiautomatic segmentation technique, will be automatically calculated by the software. Volumetric measurements will be calculated in cubic millimeters.

Time frame: one month
