AbstractThe purpose of this study is to develop an automatic technique to segment the membrane of the maxillary sinus with morphological changes (e.g. thickened membrane and cysts) for the detection of abnormalities. The first step is to segment the sinus bone cavity in the CBCT image using fuzzy C-mean algorithm. Then, the vertices of inner bone walls of sinus in the mesh model are screened with vertex normal direction and angular based mean-distance filtering. The resulted vertices are then used to generate the bony sinus cavity mesh model by using Poisson surface reconstruction. Finally, the sinus membrane morphological changes are segmented by subtracting the air sinus segmentation from the reconstructed bony sinus cavity. The proposed method has been applied on 5 maxillary sinuses with mucosal thickening and has demonstrated that it can segment thin membrane thickening (<; 2 mm) successfully within 4.1% and 3.5% error in volume and surface area respectively. Existing methods have issues of leakages at openings and thin bones, and inaccuracy with irregular contours commonly seen in maxillary sinus. The current method overcomes these shortcomings.
