Not Applicable

Recruiting

• Conditions: Segmentation Techniques

• Registration Number: NCT05435417
• Lead Sponsor: Cairo University

Brief Summary

Effect of Segmentation Techniques (Manual versus Semiautomatic) on the Accuracy of the Reconstructed Mandibular Condyle using CBCT

Detailed Description

It will be used to segment the mandibular condyle and asses its volumetric and linear measurements. Therefore, the accuracy of the segmentation techniques of the mandibular condyle will be determined

Recruitment & Eligibility

• Status: RECRUITING
• Sex: All
• Target Recruitment: 29

Inclusion Criteria

• Intact dry human skulls and mandibles.

Exclusion Criteria

• Presence of fracture, pathological lesions, or skeletal deformities in the condylar area.

Study & Design

• Study Type: INTERVENTIONAL
• Study Design: PARALLEL

Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Linear assessment of the condyles	one month	Linear measurements will be calculated in millimeters by Built-in measuring tool (ruler) in the software + digital caliper on the dry mandibles

Secondary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Volumetric assessment of the condyles	one month	For volumetric measurements, the volume of the segmented condyle, either by manual or semiautomatic segmentation technique, will be automatically calculated by the software. Volumetric measurements will be calculated in cubic millimeters.
