Q

Why are multiple forms of data sets a problem:

A

It inhibits the access to healthcare by:

  1. limiting the access to the patients information
  2. increasing cost of treatment
  3. delaying time of treatment
32
Q

T/F: Image transfer is as simple as transferring one or of intraoral images

A

False- one transfers an entire data set so the users may access the image files to construct the selected images needed (the images needed will vary between different practitioners)

33
Q

_____ dwarfs the ranges of intraoral, panoramic and skull images

A

CBCT image reconstruction capacity

34
Q

T/F: 2D image reconstructions are not typically stored & transferred

A

True

35
Q

Entire volumetric data sets are transferred so that practitioners:

A
  1. are not limited to a limited number of reconstructions
  2. can determine their own preferred range of images needed for their diagnostic and treatment needs
36
Q

What are the two inherent artifacts that we see most often with CBCT?

A
  1. beam hardening
  2. streaking
37
Q

Beam hardening & streaking are due to:

A

software

38
Q

What occurs with beam hardening:

A

dark areas adjacent to metal

39
Q

This occurs when software does a reconstruction and it notices an area with no signal (due to metal) so the program compensates by increasing the signal next to the metal (an overcorrection); it is a reconstruction artifact:

A

Beam hardening

40
Q

What inherent artifact is indicated by the red arrows?

A

Beam hardening

41
Q

A sunburst like pattern reconstruction artifact seen when there is metal:

A

Streaking

42
Q

What inherent artifact is indicated by the green arrows?

A

Streaking

43
Q

What needs to be present in order to have either streaking or beam hardening or both?

A

Metal

44
Q

Beams hardening creates _____ that is really not there

A

Pathology

45
Q

A reconstruction artifact in CT due to the total absorption of low energy photons by metal objects:

A

Beam hardening

46
Q

When metal is detected in a CT, beam hardening may occur because _____ in the heterogenous X-ray beam will create a signal in tissues adjacent to the metal structure in the back projection algorithm and these areas will be “______” thus creating ______

A

high energy photons; “burned out”; dark areas

47
Q

What is the effects of beam hardening in the cross-sectional & parasagittal reconstructions?

A

Simulates peri-implantitis & alveolar bone defects

48
Q

In addition to metal, beam hardening may occur with:

A

GP used with RCT treatment

49
Q

Creates the outline of a “ghost implant” as well as other radiopaque outlines in the cross-sectional reconstruction:

A

Streak artifact

50
Q

Beam hardening=

Streaking=

A

radiolucent

radiopaque

51
Q

The streak artifact makes it more difficult to:

A

Discern the validity of the cortical bone outlines

52
Q

Streak artifact:

X-rays are heavily attenuated after passing through metal objects which results in:

A

very weak signals reaching the detector

53
Q

Streak artifact:

metal shadows in the raw projection data will then introduce streak artifact in the back projection algorithm reconstructions which introduces the metal streak artifact in:

A

Low density structures (soft tissues)

54
Q

What error can be seen in the following image?

A

Streak artifact

55
Q

What error can be seen in the following image?

A

Streak artifact

56
Q

CBCT streak artifact is minimized with:

A

distance from metals

57
Q

Why does slice 2 show much more extreme streaking compared to slice 1?

A

Slice 1 is further away from the metal

58
