초록

For virtual surgical planning in orthognathic surgery, marking tooth landmarks on CT images is an important procedure. However, the manual localization procedure of tooth landmarks is time-consuming, labor-intensive, and requires expert knowledge. Also, direct and automatic tooth landmark localization on CT images is difficult because of the lower resolution and metal artifacts of dental images. The purpose of this study was to propose an attention-guided volumetric regression network (V<sup xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">2</sup>-Net) for accurate tooth landmark localization on CT images with metal artifacts and lower resolution. V<sup xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">2</sup>-Net has an attention-guided network architecture using a coarse-to-fine-attention mechanism that guided the 3D probability distribution of tooth landmark locations within anatomical structures from the coarse V-Net to the fine V-Net for more focus on tooth landmarks. In addition, we combined attention-guided learning and a 3D attention module with optimal Pseudo Huber loss to improve the localization accuracy. Our results show that the proposed method achieves state-of-the-art accuracy of 0.85 ± 0.40 mm in terms of mean radial error, outperforming previous studies. In ablation studies, we observed that the proposed attention-guided learning and a 3D attention module improved the accuracy of tooth landmark localization in CT images of lower resolution and metal artifacts. Furthermore, our method achieved 97.92% in terms of the success detection rate within the clinically accepted accuracy range of 2.0 mm.
