ToothSegNet: Image Degradation meets Tooth Segmentation in CBCT Images [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 In computer-assisted orthodontics, three-dimensional tooth models are required for many medical treatments. Tooth segmentation from cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) images is a crucial step in constructing the models. However, CBCT image quality problems such as metal artifacts and blurring caused by shooting equipment and patients' dental ...
