Description
Benjamin Klintström and six co-authors test dental scanners as bone checkers in this twenty twenty-four study. Weak bones are often missed until a fracture. The gold-standard bone scanners are scarce, so clinics need other options. Dental cone-beam scanners are common and cheap by contrast.
The team scanned the wrists of twenty-one patients with a dental scanner and compared the results with the standard scanner and with strength models. After fixing the dental scan's scale with a test block, its bone measures tracked the standard ones well. Predicted bone strength also matched closely. The study opens a path to quick bone checks in more places.
