Abstract

Objective

To compare the expression of the volumetric alteration (VA) artifact between cylindrical and convex triangular fields of view (FOVs) using high-density materials in different positions in two cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) devices.

Materials and methods

Cylinders of five high-density materials (amalgam, chromium-cobalt, gutta-percha, titanium, and zirconium) with known physical volume were individually submitted to CBCT acquisition in four positions inside a polymethylmethacrylate phantom using two different FOV shapes (convex triangular and cylindrical) on the Veraviewepocs® R100 (R100) and Veraview® X800 (X800) devices. Two oral radiologists obtained the tomographic volumes by segmenting each cylinder. The difference between the tomographic and physical volumes corresponded to the VA. These values were analyzed by intraclass correlation coefficient and analysis of variance for repeated measures with Tukey post hoc test (α = 5%).

Results

The FOV influenced the VA only in the X800 device (p = 0.014): the VA in the triangular FOV was greater than in the cylindrical FOV. The VA in the triangular FOV of the X800 device was greater than the R100 device (p < 0.0001). The material influenced the expression of the VA only in the R100 device (p < 0.0001); gutta-percha presented the highest VA, being underestimated, and differing from the other materials (p < 0.01).

Conclusion

The triangular FOV increased the VA of high-density materials in the X800 device.

Clinical relevance

It is important to know if there is an influence on the volumetric alteration artifact of dental materials due to the different image formation geometry in the convex triangular FOV.
