Abstract:
Abstract Optical computed tomography (CT) is one of the leading modalities for imaging gel dosimeters. There exist many prototype designs, as well as some commercial optical CT scanners that have showcased the value that gel dosimeters can provide to improve 3D dose verification for radiation treatments. However, due to factors including image accuracy, scan time, or demanding setup and maintenance there is currently no single scanner that has become a ubiquitous staple in a clinical setting. In this work, a prototype solid tank optical CT scanner is proposed that minimizes the need for a refractive index bath commonly found in optical CT systems. In addition to the design proposal, a ray-path simulator was created to optimize the design such that the solid tank geometry improves light collection across the detector array, maximizes the volume of the dosimeter scanned, and maximizes the dynamic range of the scanner.

Abstract:
Objectives The aim of this study was to compare 3D accuracy of tooth image reconstruction from three kinds of CT scans using 3D superimpositional method. Methods 18 sound extracted human teeth were scanned by 3D optical system, spiral CT, micro-CT, and cone-beam CT scanner. The digital teeth images reconstructed from three kinds of CT scans were superimposed onto the standard image from optical scans respectively. Distribution patterns of shape discrepancy were presented using histogram, as well as showed in different colors on the superimposed imagines. The ratio of voluminal discrepancy versus the volume of the standard image (RVD/VS) was calculated and analyzed, using the matched-pair t-test and rank sum test. Results Compared with the standard tooth image, the average RVD/VS of digital teeth images by the micro-CT, cone-beam CT, spiral CT scans were 5.11%, 20.73%, 24.60% respectively, and there were statistically significant difference among the three kinds of CT scans (P<0.01). Significant difference were also found among the anterior teeth, bicuspids, and molars (P<0.01). Histogram gave the description about the counts and magnitude of the discrepancies. Marked by difference colors, the superimposed images could give visualized information about the magnitude and distribution patterns of discrepancies. Conclusions The digital teeth models reconstructed from the spiral CT, micro-CT, cone-beam CT images are inhomogeneous enlarged, compared with the original models. As the only realizable way to individualized FEM analysis, tooth modeling by CT scans needs more efforts and refinements to improve its accuracy.

Abstract:
This study proposed a CCD-based (charge-coupled device) optical computed tomography scanner (CT-s2) for 3D gel dosimetry. A parallel laser light was generated to pass through the gel sample using a diffuser and collimating lens. A CCD was used to capture projection image of gel sample at each step. An image reconstruction algorithm, filtered-back projection (FBP) technique was used to reconstruct the 3D image. Two better rotational steps are suggested as 1.0 degree and 1.5 degree for considering both of angular resolution and position deviation. The un-irradiated and irradiated BANG gel samples were scanned and reconstructed using FBP technique. Some artifacts were found in reconstructed images. Some discussions for artifacts were conducted and some solutions provided by previous researches to reduce these artifacts will be evaluated in the future work.

Abstract:
Purpose: Few studies have focused on the feasibility and accuracy of intraoral digital impressions for maxillectomy defects, especially for extensive soft tissue defects. Using intraoral scanners alone might be feasible for producing maxillary obturator prostheses, albeit with some limitations. It seems logical to investigate this ambiguity. Therefore, this systematic review aimed to assessing the feasibility and accuracy of using intraoral scanners (IOSs) to digitize maxillectomy defects. Materials and Methods: PubMed, the Cochrane Oral Health Group Trials Register, and the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials were electronically searched, and five prosthodontics journals were manually searched for English-language articles published as of December 2020 that assessed the feasibility and accuracy of using intraoral scanners to acquire digital impressions for maxillectomy defects. Results: Two in vitro studies, three clinical studies, six clinical reports, and three techniques were included (N=14). Aramany’s and Brown’s classifications were used to classify defects in twelve and one articles, respectively; the remaining article did not specify defect class. The 3M True definition IOS with Cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT), Computed tomography (CT), and/or optical scanners were used in both in vitro studies, mainly to evaluate accuracy. The Trios 3 scanner was used in nine studies as the main resource for data acquisition (75.0%), whereas the Trophy 3DI, Lava, and Cerec Omnicam scanners were used in three articles (25.0%). Four degrees of feasibility were identified: feasible (14.3%), feasible with limitations (28.6%), feasible with CBCT or CT (35.7%), and feasible with conventional impressions (21.4%). Accuracy was evaluated in four studies but was not mentioned in ten studies. Conclusion: The results revealed a low level of evidence for the feasibility and accuracy of using intraoral scanners to digitize maxillectomy defects. Additional multicenter clinical studies are needed to evaluate the feasibility and accuracy of digital workflow compared with the conventional approach.

Abstract:
Objectives. The study aimed to compare the accuracy of different methods of data acquisition and data reconstruction and to assess their usefulness for 3D printing of tooth replicas. Methods. 3-dimensional models of molar and canine teeth obtain utilizing CBCT examination with different protocols, and optical scanning was compared with models derived from micro-computed (micro-CT) examination using Geomagic Studio Qualify software. A pairwise comparison of 3D models with analysis of standard deviation and the value of the mean distance of given surfaces was performed. Results. Standard deviation and the value of the mean distance were lowest for optical scanning followed by CBC in high and standard resolution in all tested protocols. Models, obtained with high-resolution CBCT protocols, of teeth in and outside of alveolar bone showed similar average distance parameters, but standard deviation parameter was significantly lower for models of teeth scanned outside of the socket. Good surface representation on all models was seen at relatively smooth areas while in areas of high changes in the geometry CBCT based models performed inferiorly to those obtained from an optical scanner. Conclusions. In case of teeth of noncomplicated texture, independently from a position (within or outside the alveolar socket), the high-resolution CBCT seems to be a sufficient method to obtain data for 3D printed tooth replica. Optical scanning performs better when a detailed replica is necessary.

Abstract:
A 194-cm-long total-body positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) scanner (uEXPLORER), has been constructed to offer a transformative platform for human radiotracer imaging in clinical research and healthcare. Its total-body coverage and exceptional sensitivity provide opportunities for innovative studies of physiology, biochemistry, and pharmacology. The objective of this study is to develop a method to perform ultrahigh (100 ms) temporal resolution dynamic PET imaging by combining advanced dynamic image reconstruction paradigms with the uEXPLORER scanner. We aim to capture the fast dynamics of initial radiotracer distribution, as well as cardiac motion, in the human body. The results show that we can visualize radiotracer transport in the body on timescales of 100 ms and obtain motion-frozen images with superior image quality compared to conventional methods. The proposed method has applications in studying fast tracer dynamics, such as blood flow and the dynamic response to neural modulation, as well as performing real-time motion tracking (e.g., cardiac and respiratory motion, and gross body motion) without any external monitoring device (e.g., electrocardiogram, breathing belt, or optical trackers).
