Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of medical data processing, and in particular relates to a precision planning and evaluation analysis method and system for oral implantation. Background Art

[0002] Oral implants are implanted into the upper and lower jaws of the human body where the teeth are missing through surgery. After the surgical wound heals, a denture is installed on top of it. In other words, dental implants are equivalent to the roots of real teeth.

[0003] The implantation position of dental implants is very important. Improper implantation may damage adjacent anatomical structures such as the mandibular nerve canal and maxillary sinus. Therefore, the implantation accuracy of dental implants plays an important role in the development and application of oral implant technology. At present, oral implant surgery has the following problems: Before digital oral and maxillofacial implant surgery, due to the lack of intelligent preoperative precision analysis and planning, when encountering cases with poor local bone conditions and complex surgeries, implantation angle deviation is more likely to occur, resulting in lateral perforation of the bone wall, damage to the roots of adjacent teeth, damage to the nerve and vascular bundles and other adverse consequences;

[0004] In addition, after the implant surgery, the existing evaluation methods based on three-dimensional grid model fusion and image fusion have low accuracy and cannot provide objective and quantifiable data and indicators for doctors to judge the accuracy of implant placement. Moreover, since implants are often made of metal, artifacts will be generated during CT scanning, resulting in the inability to effectively record the tissue images behind the implant, which directly affects the accuracy of doctors in judging the implant results.

Although the exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure are shown in the accompanying drawings, it should be understood that the present disclosure can be implemented in various forms and should not be limited by the embodiments described herein; on the contrary, these embodiments are provided to enable a more thorough understanding of the present disclosure and to fully convey the scope of the present disclosure to those skilled in the art.

[0056] In the first aspect, the present application proposes a precision planning and evaluation analysis method for oral implantation, such as Figure 1 As shown, the following steps are included:

[0057] S100: Acquire a preoperative implantation region image including a positioning guide, wherein the positioning guide is provided with a plurality of implantation marking points; identify each of the implantation marking points in the preoperative implantation region image, and establish a preoperative implantation region coordinate system formed by the implantation marking points;

[0058] The positioning guide plate refers to a universal simple mold customized according to the patient's oral condition. Usually, the doctor designs a guide plate based on the patient's oral CT scan, which can be placed in the mouth to occlude the teeth and mark the corresponding implant position. In this embodiment, the positioning guide plate is provided with optical marking points.

[0059] In some optional implementations of some embodiments, the acquiring of a preoperative implantation area image including a positioning guide, wherein the positioning guide is provided with a plurality of implantation marking points; identifying each of the implantation marking points in the preoperative implantation area image, and establishing a preoperative implantation area coordinate system formed by the implantation marking points, comprises:

Based on the geometric relationship between the markers, a coordinate system of the preoperative implantation area is established through a coordinate transformation algorithm.

[0072] in, is the coordinate in the preoperative implantation area coordinate system, is the coordinate in the image coordinate system, It is the transformation matrix from the image coordinate system to the preoperative implant area coordinate system, which is the basis for implant positioning and planning, ensuring the accuracy and repeatability of the operation.

[0073] S200: performing threshold segmentation, region growing and morphological processing on the preoperative implantation area image, and then combining the preoperative implantation area coordinate system to determine the coordinates of the ideal implantation point;

[0074] In some optional implementations of some embodiments, the performing of threshold segmentation, region growing and morphological processing on the preoperative implantation area image and combining the preoperative implantation area coordinate system to determine the coordinates of the ideal implantation point includes:

[0075] The threshold segmentation is used to automatically select a suitable threshold value according to the grayscale characteristics of the tooth bone to separate the tooth bone area from the background;

[0076] The region growing is used to gradually merge adjacent pixel points starting from a known tooth bone seed point to form a complete tooth bone region;

[0077] The morphological processing is used to refine the tooth bone edge, remove redundant noise points, and obtain ideal implantation point coordinate information that meets the implantation safety gap and implantation radius.

[0078] Among them, in order to extract the information of missing teeth and bones from the preoperative implant area image data, the image segmentation technology of image processing can be used to accurately extract the data information of missing teeth and bones and the coordinate information of tooth implantation points. The image processing methods used are: threshold segmentation, iterative segmentation, regional growth, and corrosion processing to determine the safe and ideal implantation point coordinates.

[0079] 1. Threshold segmentation

[0080] When the grayscale values ​​of adjacent pixels within the target or background of an image are highly correlated, and the grayscale values ​​of pixels on both sides of the boundary between the target and the background are quite different, threshold segmentation is to make the grayscale values ​​of images belonging to the same segmentation area similar based on the large differences between different segmentation areas. The segmentation result is a series of continuous or similar areas. For the obvious differences in grayscale values ​​between the target and the background, and between different targets in the image, the image can be segmented into different target and background areas by selecting the threshold;

[0081] In order to accurately extract the tooth-bone data of the preoperative implant area, it is necessary to analyze the characteristics of the skull data in the preoperative implant area image. From the analysis of the grayscale value of the alveolar bone in the cross-section of the skull CT image, it can be seen that the grayscale value of the bone and non-bone is quite different, which is detectable and can be used as the basis for extracting the alveolar bone of the preoperative implant area. Because the iterative value method takes a long time and the difference between the target and the background in the CT image is obvious (i.e. easy to detect), a segmentation method based on a single threshold is selected to filter the image data in the area to be implanted to extract the tooth-bone data information of the preoperative implant area.

[0082] Specific implementation process:

[0083] Choose an appropriate grayscale threshold .

[0084] For each pixel, if its gray value is greater than , it is considered to be part of the tooth bone and is expressed as:

[0085]

[0086] in, is the binary image of the segmented tooth bone, is the average gray value of the alveolar bone, The preoperative implant area image is at point The gray value of .

[0087] 2. Regional Growth

[0088] The basic idea of ​​region growing is to group pixels with similar properties to form a region. First, the region growing method needs to select a group of seed pixels that can represent the required region, determine the similarity criteria in the growing process, and specify the conditions or criteria for stopping the growth. The growth criteria can consider the connectivity between pixels, combine grayscale, gradient and other features, and select a single pixel or a small area that does not contain several pixels as a seed pixel. The region segmentation method uses the similarity of grayscale values ​​in the same region to merge similar regions and separate dissimilar regions, ultimately forming different segmented regions;

[0089] Although the data after threshold segmentation can retain the alveolar bone information of the implant area to the maximum extent, it obviously contains some invalid data; these data may be scattered images caused by medical diagnostic equipment imaging or discrete distribution of low-density bone due to missing teeth and bone atrophy. Digital image processing such as regional growth is needed, which will help determine whether the implant has penetrated and simplify the data information of the implant area.

[0090] Specific implementation process:

[0091] Select seed point .

[0092] According to similarity criteria, such as gray level, gradient, etc., the growth region is expressed as:

[0093]

[0094] in, It is the area after growth. is a point in the region, is the similarity function, is the similarity threshold.

[0095] 3. Morphological processing

[0096] In order to guide the range of values ​​of the implant solution, the alveolar bone data after regional growth processing needs to be image processed again. Considering the impact of the implant diameter on the success of the implant surgery, such as the implant diameter cannot be larger than the alveolar bone width, and due to the influence of the implant direction, the implanted implant cannot always pass through the alveolar bone. All these constraints can be simplified to the selection of the implant point and the implant direction angle. The implant direction angle depends on the selection of the implant point. Only by selecting the appropriate implant point can the optimal implant implantation plan be generated;

[0097] The selection of implantation points is achieved through image morphological corrosion processing. The purpose of corrosion is to obtain the implantation point coordinate information that meets the implantation safety gap and implantation radius. The specific implementation process is as follows:

[0098] Using Structural Elements Perform the erosion operation and select the appropriate radius .

[0099] Etching treatment to determine a secure implantation point.

[0100] The corrosion operation can be expressed as:

[0101]

[0102] in is the image after corrosion, represents the corrosion operation, is the structural element, which moves inside the target of the original image, marking the origin of the structure, so as to obtain the image after corrosion. If dilation is the union of the image and the structural figure after translation, then corrosion is the dual operation of the dilation operation, which can be obtained by the intersection of the reverse translation. Intuitively speaking, the corrosion operation is the graphics of "shrinking" or "thinning" the image. Corrosion is not only the reduction of the input image, but also the elimination of the components in the input image that are smaller than the structural figure.

[0103] To determine the coordinates of the ideal implantation point, it can be expressed as:

[0104]

[0105] in, are the coordinates of the ideal implantation point, Yes The neighborhood of the implantation point is finally obtained, which meets the implantation safety gap and implantation radius.

[0106] For example:

[0107] Assuming we have a 3D image of the alveolar bone, we first determine the approximate area of ​​the bone by threshold segmentation. Then, we select a seed point for region growing to refine the boundary of the bone. Finally, we use a radius of The sphere was used as a structural element and was etched to define a secure implantation point.

[0108] Specifically, assume that the coordinates of a pixel are , whose gray value is ,if , then the point is considered to be part of the tooth bone. In region growing, if the grayscale difference between the point and the seed point is less than , then the point is added to the growth region In the erosion operation, we find all , and calculate the grayscale difference between them and the surrounding points, and select the point with the smallest difference as .

[0109] As another embodiment of obtaining the coordinates of the ideal implantation point, the position of the ideal implantation point can also be preliminarily determined by calculating the geometric center of the alveolar ridge in the extracted edentulous area.

[0110] Based on the size of the implant and the bone condition of the alveolar ridge, the coordinates of the implant point are adjusted to ensure the safe placement of the implant.

[0111] The coordinates of the ideal implantation point are calculated using the following formula:

[0112]

[0113] in, are the coordinates of the ideal implantation point, are the coordinates of the n points that constitute the edge of the alveolar ridge.

[0114] S300: establishing a spherical coordinate system based on the coordinates of the ideal implantation point, and planning an implantation plan according to the implantation direction, implantation radius, and implantation length, wherein the implantation plan includes the expected positions of the implantation apex and implantation bottom of the implant in the coordinate system of the preoperative implantation area;

[0115] The positioning of oral implants is determined by the following four parameters: the ideal implantation point position information of the implant, the implantation direction of the implant, the radius of the implant and the implantation depth of the implant. The ideal implantation point is the main characteristic parameter among the above four parameters. The ideal implantation point is the ideal starting point for oral surgery and will ultimately affect the success of the surgery. The implantation depth of the implant is determined by the growth direction and morphology of the alveolar bamboo in the implantation area and the implantation direction. The choice of implantation direction and implant radius not only determines the growth morphology of the alveolar bone in the implantation area, but also depends on the position information of the ideal implantation point. Once the ideal implantation point is determined, the growth morphology information of the root bone and the implantation direction will also be determined. Since the implantation direction is known, according to the constraints of the implantation: the implanted implant cannot always pass through the alveolar bone, the values ​​of the implantation radius and implantation depth are also determined. It can be seen that the optimization of the dental implant positioning problem can be simplified to the optimization of implantation parameters based on the ideal implantation point. The coordinates of the ideal implantation point determine the stability of the implant implantation plan to a large extent.

[0116] like Figure 2 As shown, the coordinates of the ideal implantation point are , establish the ideal implantation point The spherical coordinate system with the origin as the center is used to determine the optimal implantation direction by analyzing the anatomical structure of the implant area and the spatial relationship between the adjacent tissues before surgery. and According to the coordinates of the ideal implant point and the bone condition of the alveolar ridge, combined with the size and shape of the implant, the implant radius is calculated, and the implant length is determined according to the height of the implant area before surgery and the occlusal requirements. At this point, the established spherical coordinate system constitutes the ideal implant point. The planned planting plan for the origin is expressed as:

[0117]

[0118] in, Indicates the direction of the central axis of the implant, that is, the implantation direction of the implant, which consists of two independent direction angles and Decide, The center axis of the implant is The angle between the axes, positive The angle between the axis and the projection of the implant center axis in the xoy plane is , where is the implant length, is the radius of the implant, thereby obtaining the desired position of the implant. DETAILED DESCRIPTION For example, for a patient who needs oral implants, through the above steps, the doctor can plan the precise position and direction of the implant. For example, in the patient's preoperative image, the coordinates of the ideal implant point are (10, 20, 30), and the implant direction angle is is 45°, The planting radius is 90° for mm, implant length The distance between the implant and the implant is 10 mm. With these parameters, the surgeon can calculate the desired position of the implant in the local coordinate system before surgery, providing precise navigation for the surgery. This approach greatly improves the predictability and success rate of the surgery, and reduces patient discomfort and the risk of postoperative complications.

[0119] S400: After implanting the implant according to the implantation plan, a postoperative implantation area image is acquired, and actual positions corresponding to the implantation apex and implantation bottom of the implant are determined according to the postoperative implantation area image;

[0120] In some optional implementations of some embodiments, after implanting the implant according to the implantation plan, obtaining a postoperative implantation area image includes:

[0121] Perform multi-planar reconstruction on the post-operative implantation area image to obtain re-sliced ​​different tomographic images, and convert each different tomographic image to obtain a cross-sectional image of a corresponding view;

[0122] Using a contour detection algorithm to find the maximum contour in each of the cross-sectional images, and obtaining the range of each of the maximum contours;

[0123] All cross-sectional images are filtered according to the size, shape and range of the maximum contour of the implant to obtain a cross-sectional image to be screened that contains the implant.

[0124] Among them, after the patient completes the oral implant surgery, the patient's implanted area is scanned again by CT or CBCT. After the scan is completed, the original image data is saved in DICOM format, and these DICOM format data are transferred to the computer for analysis through the medical image transmission protocol or physical media. The original image data is imported through professional medical image processing software (such as Materialise Mimics, SurgiCase, etc.). In the medical image processing software, the original image data is selected, the multi-planar reconstruction (MPR) function is started, the view is adjusted, and the coronal, sagittal and cross-sectional images are generated. Each cross-sectional image is digitized for subsequent image analysis, and the Canny edge detection or ActiveContours algorithm is applied to automatically identify the maximum contour in the cross-sectional image. The algorithm calculates and records the maximum contour range of the implant, sets the filtering conditions according to the actual size of the implant, and automatically filters out the cross-sectional images containing the implant contour, excluding irrelevant images.

[0125] Specifically: Assume that patient Zhang San has completed dental implant surgery and has a CBCT scan after surgery. The scan data is saved in DICOM format. After that, the data is imported into the SurgiCase software for further analysis. In the SurgiCase software, after Zhang San's CBCT data is loaded, multiple cross-sectional images are generated by dragging and adjusting the three-dimensional view. These images can accurately show the relationship between the implant and the surrounding tissue. When processing Zhang San's cross-sectional images, the software automatically applies the Canny algorithm to identify the contour of the implant and calculate the minimum rectangular bounding box size of the contour, such as 10mm long and 8mm wide. According to the size of the implant (such as 3.5mm in diameter), the software automatically filters out cross-sectional images whose contour range is much smaller than this size to ensure that the images that may contain implants are analyzed.

[0126] In some optional implementations of some embodiments, selecting a target cross-sectional image closest to a central section of the implant from the cross-sectional images to be selected includes:

[0127] Extracting a local image containing an implant from each of the cross-sectional images to be screened;

[0128] Calculating the implant slope of the implant in the local image, and performing rotation correction on the local image according to the position of the implant in the oral cavity and the implant slope to obtain a corrected image;

[0129] Scaling the corrected image according to the size of the standard image, and calculating the structural similarity between the scaled image and the standard image;

[0130] The cross-sectional image to be screened corresponding to the maximum structural similarity value is selected as the target cross-sectional image.

[0131] The cross-sectional image area containing the implant is extracted to generate a local image. The slope of the implant in the local image is calculated and rotation correction is performed. The corrected image is size-matched with the standard image, and the corrected and size-matched image is aligned with the standard image. The structural similarity (SSIM) algorithm is applied to calculate the similarity of the two images, and the similarity score is recorded for judgment in subsequent steps. The structural similarity scores of all candidate cross-sectional images are compared, and the cross-sectional image with the highest similarity is selected as the implant center section, which will be used for further diagnosis and implant positioning.

[0132] Specifically: The software automatically identifies and extracts the implant area, calculates its slope as 5 degrees, and performs rotation correction. The image is then adjusted to a standard size to facilitate comparison with subsequent standard images. Through the SSIM algorithm, the software compares the brightness, contrast, and structural changes of the corrected image with the standard image, and obtains a similarity score of 0.95, indicating that the two are very similar.
