Cone Beam Basics Flashcards
Digital image processing/modifications include:
- compression
- imagining manipulations
- image reconstruction
Imaging manipulations=automated image analysis which includes:
Qualitative image analysis & Quantitative image analysis
Imaging manipulation that changes pixel’s digital value:
Qualitative
Imaging manipulation that counts the number of pixels:
Quantitative
Data is utilized by other software programs and produces different image presentations:
Image reconstruction
Label the following views from the spiral CT scan 3D image reconstruction:
- caudal cranial view
- buccal view
- distal view
- lingual view
- mesial view
- occlusal view
You don’t do a CBCT ____, you do a CBCT ____
image; scan
Use of computers to generate multiple images of an object from digitized density information obtained from various signals; X-radiation (MDCT, CBCT), magnetic fields (MRI), sonar radiation (ultrasound), etc.
Computed tomography
Two forms of X-ray CT:
- CBCT (cone beam computed tomography)
- MDCT (multidetector computed tomography)
CBCT & MDCT are both forms of:
X-ray CT
CBCT was developed in Japan & Europe before:
2000 A.D.
What was the first commercially available Cone Beam system in the United States?
NewTom (2001)
What version of NewTom was created in 2001?
NewTom 9000
NewTom 9000 was later renamed:
NewTom 3G
The NewTom 9000/NewTom 3G is similar panoramic but captures:
Density values of the whole object at different angles
NewTom 9000 (2001) is similar to the first:
MDCT (1971)
Describe the change of design from the NewTom 3G to the NewTom VGi:
Laydown version —-> stand up version
Label the names of the following machines:
Left: NewTom 3G
Right: NewTom VGi
How is the NewTom VGi similar to a pano?
The patient stands while getting scanned
For NewTom VGi, the imaging capture process is ______ while the image processing takes _____
short; longer
What device produced by Sirona is smaller and used more often?
Orthophos XG 3D
Sironas bigger model= ____
Sironas smaller model= _____
Galileo
Orthophos
what models did I-cat FLX create?
V8
V10
V17
What is significant about I-cat FLX V8, V10 & V17 models?
Sit down models
Describe the advantages & disadvantages of a sit down unit:
Takes more time to get patient settled in but less chance for motion artifact
The faster the scan, the _______ but the lower the _______
less information; dose of radiation
T/F: Most of the sit down units have a larger detector so they tend to be more expensive
T
List what CBCT models are made by CareStream:
CS 8100
CS 9300 select
CareStream was originally ____ but went ____
Kodak; Bankrupt
What models are shown in the following images?
CS 8100 (Left)
CS 9300 select (Right)
What models are shown in the following images?
I-cat FLX (V8, V10 or V17 model)
What model are shown in the following images?
Sirona Galileo (bigger model)
What models are shown in the following images?
Sirona Orthophos (smaller model)
Both the CS 8100 & CS 9300 select are ______ CBCT units
Stand up
Va Tech “Picasso” models are what type of CBCTs?
This company has both sit down & stand up units
What model is seen in the image below?
VaTech “Green21” model
What models are shown in the following images?
Va Tech Picasso models
What model is seen in the image below?
Morita X800
What CBCT unit is UMKC getting next year?
Morita X800
The larger the scan, the more time it takes = _____ dose
the higher the dose
Due to a larger scan taking more time and ultimately having a higher radiation dose, you would prefer the patient to:
sit in a chair so they don’t have to retake the scan
What type of CBCT scanner do we currently have in the school that is Dr. Briners baby?
I-CAT FLX
What type of CBCT is seen in the image below?
Morita 3D accuitomo 170
The CBCT brand Planmeca has what models:
Planmeca Viso G5
Panacea Viso G7
Describe the difference between the FOVs of Planmeca Viso G5 vs. Planmeca Viso G7:
Planmeca Viso G5: FOVS: 3X3cm 30x17cm
Planmeca Viso G7: FOVS: 3x3cm 30x19cm 30x30
Aside from the FOVs another difference seen between Planmeca Viso G5 vs. Planmeca Viso G7 is that the G7 uses a:
2-scan technique
T/F: Nearly all CBCT units are good quality, high-end imaging equipment made for a very competitive market place
True
