Metal Artifact Reduction with Intra-Oral Scan Data for 3D Low Dose Maxillofacial CBCT Modeling [PDF]

arXiv, 2022
Low-dose dental cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) has been increasingly used for maxillofacial modeling. However, the presence of metallic inserts, such as implants, crowns, and dental filling, causes severe streaking and shading artifacts in a CBCT image and loss of the morphological structures of the teeth, which consequently prevents accurate ...

Bayesian Nonparametric Policy Search with Application to Periodontal Recall Intervals [PDF]

arXiv, 2018
Tooth loss from periodontal disease is a major public health burden in the United States. Standard clinical practice is to recommend a dental visit every six months; however, this practice is not evidence-based, and poor dental outcomes and increasing dental insurance premiums indicate room for improvement.

Activation of Glutamatergic Neurons in the Supramammillary Nucleus Promotes the Recovery of Consciousness under Sevoflurane Anesthesia

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Selective lesioning of SuM glutamatergic neurons promoted the induction of and delayed emergence from sevoflurane anesthesia and increased sevoflurane sensitivity. Optogenetic stimulation of SuM glutamatergic neurons or the SuM‐MS projection promoted behavioral arousal and cortical activation under steady‐state sevoflurane anesthesia and reduced the ...
