VARIOUS TECHNIQUES • • • • • •
3D Cephalometry 3D CT scanning 3D laser scanning Moire topography Structured light technique Stereophotogrammetry
www.indiandentalacademy.com
3D CEPHALOMETRY • Drawbacks – Time consuming – Exposes the patients to radiation – Does not define soft tissue and there are difficulty in relating accurately the same landmarks in two radiographs ,especially in biplanar technique.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
3D LASER SCANNING Advantages – Less invasive technique for capturing face for planning or for evaluation outcomes of treatment.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
Disadvantages – - slowness of method, making distortion of scanned image likely. - safety issues of exposing eyes to laser beam, especially in growing children. - inability to capture soft tissue texture, which results in difficulties in identification of landmarks that are dependant of surface color. www.indiandentalacademy.com
Moire topography • Defines 3D information based on the contour fringes and fringe intervals. • Difficulties are encountered if the surface has sharp features. • Care to be taken about positioning of the head.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
• Motoyoshi et al ( AJO 1992) described the system and concluded that it does not capture facial texture and subsequent landmark identification is difficult.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
STRUCTURED LIGHT TECHNIQUE • Light is used to illuminate the scene and only one image is required. • The position of the illuminated points in the captured image compared to their position on the light projection plane provides the information to extract the 3D co-ordinates of the imaged object.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
DRAWBACKS • To obtain high density image the face needs to be illuminated several times with light.this is time consuming and may alter the position of the head. • Also the camera does not provide a 1800 ear to ear facial model.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
• Techaletpaisarn and Kuroda (Int J Adult Orthod Orthog surg 1998) Used two Lcd projectors and Ccd ,and computer to produce a 3D image.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
• Curry et al ( seminar in orthodontics 2001) their system consists of 2 cameras and a projector. • Texture mapping
www.indiandentalacademy.com

www.indiandentalacademy.com
3D FACIAL MORPHOMETRY • Uses 2 CCD cameras that capture the subject • real time hardware for recognition of markers • software for 3D reconstruction of landmarks.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
• Landmarks are located with a 2mm hemisphere reflective markers. • An infra red streptoscope is used to light up the reflective markers. • Two side acquisiton is required to capture the whole face.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
DRAWBACKS • Placement of landmarks on the face is time and labour consuming • Reproducibility of landmark is questionable. • No life like models are produced to show natural soft tissue appearance of the face.
www.indiandentalacademy.com

3D cone beam c t scan
www.indiandentalacademy.com
Conventional c t scan • Developed by Godfrey hounsfeld (1967)
• Different generations based on organization of the individual parts of the device and physical motion of the beam of capturing the data.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
First generation • Single radiation source and a single detector. The information obtained by slice and slice.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
Second generation • Multiple detectors within the plane of scan. • These were not continuous nor did they scan the diameter of the object.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
Third generation • Advancement in data acquisition and detector • Fan beam ct. • Ring artifacts were seen on the image often distorting the 3D image and obscuring certain landmarks.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
www.indiandentalacademy.com
Fourth generation • A moving radiation dose and a fixed detector ring were introduced. • More scattered radiation were seen.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
Fifth generation • To reduce motion or scatter artifacts. • The detector is stationary and electron beam is swept along a semi circular tungsten strip anode. • The radiation is produced where the electron beam hits the anode and this results In an x ray that rotates about the patient without any translation or scatter. • 4D motion picture www.indiandentalacademy.com
limitations • Considerable physical space.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
limitations • Much more expensive.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
limitations • Stacking procedure (time consuming and expensive). • Radiation exposure was primarily responsible for limiting its usage.

What is an MRI scan How does a MRI scanner work What does a MRI scan show When are MRI scans done How is an MRI scan done Difference between an MRI and CT scan Risks and safety issues concerning an MRI scan www.indiandentalacademy.com
What is a MRI scan? • Is a radiological technique that uses magnetism, radio waves and a computer to produce images of body waves.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
How does a MRI scanner work • Radio waves 10,000 – 30,000 times stronger than the magnetic field of earth are sent through the body. • Body produces radio waves of its own. • Scanner picks up these signals and a computer turns them into an image.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
www.indiandentalacademy.com
What does an MRI scanner show • It is possible to make pictures of all body structures. • Less hydrogen atoms (darker). • More hydrogen atoms (brighter). www.indiandentalacademy.com
