Density Conversion Factor Determined using a Cone-Beam Computed Tomography Unit NewTom QR-DVT 9000
Download2006
Carey, Jason, Lagravère, Manuel O., Major, Paul W., Fang, Y., Packota, Garnet V., Toogood, Roger W.
Objective: The purpose of this study was to determine a conversion coefficient for Hounsfield Units (HU) to material density (g cm−3) obtained from cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT-NewTom QR-DVT 9000) data. Methods: Six cylindrical models of materials with different densities were made and...

Effect of object location on the density measurement and hounsfield conversion in a NewTom 3G cone-beam computed tomography unit
Download2008
Ben-Zvi, Micha, Packota, Garnet V., Major, Paul W., Lagravère, Manuel O., Carey, Jason
Objectives: The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of an object's location in a cone beam CT imaging chamber (CBCT-NewTom 3G) on its apparent density and to develop a linear conversion coefficient for Hounsfield units (HU) to material density (g cm−3) for the NewTom 3G Scanner....

Sleep-Disordered Breathing and Mandibular Bone Mass as Assessed Through Panoramic Radiographs
DownloadFall 2017
Sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) and low bone mass (i.e., osteoporosis) are common conditions affecting the adult population with an estimated prevalence of around 15%. Recent studies have assessed a potential association between SDB and reduction in bone mass in adult population. Nevertheless...
