Abstract

Amaç: Baş
ve boyun bölgesinde konik ışınlı tomografi uygulamaları esnasında hareket ve
gürültü artefaktı oluşumu oldukça yaygındır. Altta yatan nedenler arasında
cihazın uzun çekim süresi, hastaların genel sağlığı nedeniyle kontrolsüz
hareketler ve çocuklar gibi hastaların aşırı hareketliliği vardır. Bu
çalışmada, Photoshop programını kullanarak artefaktları kaldırmak için çeşitli
filtre yöntemleri ve yazılım özellikleri incelenecektir.

Gereç ve Yöntemler:Gürültü ve hareket artefaktı bulunan beş farklı imaj seçildi. Bu seçim
sonrasında Photoshop filtreleri ile belirli yollar izledi. Programda işlenen ve
düzeltilen görüntüler uzman diş hekimleri tarafından değerlendirildi. Görüntü
değerlendirmelerinde filtrelemeden önce ve sonra, uzmanlar tarafından 1 ila 5
puan arasında olmak üzere değerlendirmeler yapıldı. Her imaj 1 çok yetersiz, 2
yetersiz, 3 normal, 4 yeterli, 5 çok iyi olarak skorlandı.

Bulgular: : 1 ile 5 arasında değerlendirilen 50 adet gürültü artefaktlı imajın
değerlendirilmesi sonucunda, ortalama puan 4.12, hareketli artefaktı bulunan
imajlar için ise 1.62'dir. Wilcoxon testinin sonuçlarına göre, hareket
artefaktı ve gürültü artefaktı ile kesitlerin postoperatif düzeltme oranı
arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir fark bulundu.

Sonuçlar: Konik ışınlı bilgisayarlı tomografi uygulamalarında birçok nedenden
ötürü oluşabilecek hareket artefaktı ve gürültü artefaktı ile sıkça
karşılaşılmaktadır. Bu gibi durumlarda, Photoshop programında ortaya çıkan
artefaktlar tersine çevrilebilir ve görüntüler tanısal açıdan
değerlendirilebilir.

Using Photoshop Program in Reducing Motion and Noise Artifacts On Cone Beam Ct

Abstract

Background: Patient movement and noise artifacts are quite common during the CBCT exposure in the head and neck region. Among the underlying causes are the long duration of the device, uncontrolled movements due to the general health of the patients, and excessive mobility of the patients such as children. In this study, various filter methods and software features will be examined to remove artifacts by using Photoshop program.
Methods: Five different images with noise and motion artifact were selected. These sections were followed by specific paths with Photoshop filters. Images collected and corrected in the program were evaluated by specialist dentists. Before and after the filtering in the image evaluations, 1 to 5 criterions were evaluated by the experts. Each section was scored as 1 very inadequate, 2 inadequate, 3 normal, 4 adequate, 5 very good.
Results: As a result of the evaluation of 50 pieces of noise artifacts evaluated between 1 and 5, the average score was 4.12 points and the results were 1.62 for motion artifacts. According to the results of the Wilcoxon test, a statistically significant difference was found between the rate of postoperative correction of the sections with motion artifact and noise artifact.
Conclusion: Motion artifact and noise artifact which may occur due to many reasons are frequently encountered in CBCT examinations. In such cases, with the Photoshop program, the resulting artifacts can be reversed and can be evaluated from diagnostic point of view.
