Evaluation of ImageJ for Relative Bone Density Measurement and Clinical Application
Journal Title: Journal of Oral Health and Craniofacial Science - Year 2016, Vol 1, Issue 1
Abstract
The main method for evaluation of healing processes of the jaws in oral and maxillofacial surgery are radiological diagnostics. Quantitative description is possible by measuring the relative bone density, which puts the mean grey value of a certain area in relation to the surrounding bone tissue. In this research the intra- and interindividual variability is determined for this method and a standard operation procedure is elaborated.
