Radiographic Study on a Determination of Oral Implantation's Prognosis by the Image Processing

Part 3． Apply of Spyglass Transform 2.1 on SUMICIKON's Double Heads Type

Abstract

We used an image processing system in the diagnostic method for implant prognosis. Many processes were performed by the image processing software “Ultimage”, which performs quantitative analysis, and by using the 3-D processing software “ Spyglass Transform 2.1(IMI) to obtain data, an excellent effect was given to the diagnosis and patient description.
Then by using this software, the basic process was carried out by using completely processed images (images on 6 sheets of dental film) in the quantitative analysis of bone in SUMICIKON double-headed intervals as performed in report 2.
The results of the experiment were very clear and revealed“ Bone remodeling between heads.” Those results agreed exactly with report 2, in which Ultimage of the same image data was used.
