Estimating Measurements of Craniofacial Structures in Dental Radiographs

摘要

A method and system for receiving a dental radiographic image that includes an oral structure, and in an image processor, selecting a segmenter and an object detector, predicting masks and points of the oral structure using the segmenter and the object detector to become part of image metadata. The dental radiographic image and image metadata are further provided to a measurement processor for selecting at least one measurement method of a set of measurement methods according to the dental radiographic image and the image metadata, calculating a sensor pixel to mm (millimeter) ratio using the measurement method, and calculating a calibrated measurement of the oral structure.
