The purpose of this study was to directly and quantitatively measure BMD from Cone-beam CT (CBCT) images by enhancing the linearity and uniformity of the bone intensities based on a hybrid deep-learning model (QCBCT-NET) of combining the generative adversarial network (Cycle-GAN) and U-Net, and to compare the bone images enhanced by the QCBCT-NET with those by Cycle-GAN and U-Net. We used two phantoms of human skulls encased in acrylic, one for the training and validation datasets, and the other for the test dataset. We proposed the QCBCT-NET consisting of Cycle-GAN with residual blocks and a multi-channel U-Net using paired training data of quantitative CT (QCT) and CBCT images. The BMD images produced by QCBCT-NET significantly outperformed the images produced by the Cycle-GAN or the U-Net in mean absolute difference (MAD), peak signal to noise ratio (PSNR), normalized cross-correlation (NCC), structural similarity (SSIM), and linearity when compared to the original QCT image. The QCBCT-NET improved the contrast of the bone images by reflecting the original BMD distribution of the QCT image locally using the Cycle-GAN, and also spatial uniformity of the bone images by globally suppressing image artifacts and noise using the two-channel U-Net. The QCBCT-NET substantially enhanced the linearity, uniformity, and contrast as well as the anatomical and quantitative accuracy of the bone images, and demonstrated more accuracy than the Cycle-GAN and the U-Net for quantitatively measuring BMD in CBCT.

We developed an automatic method for staging periodontitis on dental panoramic radiographs using the deep learning hybrid method. A novel hybrid framework was proposed to automatically detect and classify the periodontal bone loss of each individual tooth. The framework is a hybrid of deep learning architecture for detection and conventional CAD processing for classification. Deep learning was used to detect the radiographic bone level (or the CEJ level) as a simple structure for the whole jaw on panoramic radiographs. Next, the percentage rate analysis of the radiographic bone loss combined the tooth long-axis with the periodontal bone and CEJ levels. Using the percentage rate, we could automatically classify the periodontal bone loss. This classification was used for periodontitis staging according to the new criteria proposed at the 2017 World Workshop on the Classification of Periodontal and Peri-Implant Diseases and Conditions. The Pearson correlation coefficient of the automatic method with the diagnoses by radiologists was 0.73 overall for the whole jaw (p < 0.01), and the intraclass correlation value 0.91 overall for the whole jaw (p < 0.01). The novel hybrid framework that combined deep learning architecture and the conventional CAD approach demonstrated high accuracy and excellent reliability in the automatic diagnosis of periodontal bone loss and staging of periodontitis.
