Different quantitative and qualitative indices calculated on oral panoramic radiographs have
been proposed as useful tools to screen for reduced skeletal bone mineral density (BMD) …

Oral Diseases (2010) 16, 316–327 Many patients with osteoporosis go undiagnosed
because typically no symptoms are present before a fracture. Triage screening to refer …

Objectives To evaluate the diagnostic performance of a deep convolutional neural network
(DCNN)-based computer-assisted diagnosis (CAD) system in the detection of osteoporosis …

Computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) has been a promising area of research over the last two
decades. However, CAD is a very complicated subject because it involves a number of …

Objective: The aim of the study was to compare the values of the antegonial index (AI),
mental index (MI), panoramic mandibular index (PMI) and mandibular cortical index (MCI) in …

Objective To determine whether individual measurements or a combination of textural
features and mandibular cortical width (MCW) derived from digital dental panoramic …

Dental panoramic radiographs could be used to screen for osteopenia. We found the fractal
dimension to be a good discriminator of osteopenia in both men and women but that the …

Background Early diagnosis of osteoporosis can potentially decrease the risk of fractures
and improve the quality of life. Detection of thin inferior cortices of the mandible on dental …

Osteoporotic fractures are associated with an increased risk of subsequent fractures, a
higher rate of mortality, and incremental medical costs. Incidental findings, which include …

Computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) has revolutionized the field of medical diagnosis. They
assist in improving the treatment potentials and intensify the survival frequency by early …
