Abstrakt: Objective: The aim of this systematic review was to identify, review, analyze, and summarize available evidence on the accuracy of linear measurements when using maxillofacial cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) specifically in the field of implant dentistry.
Material and Methods: The search was undertaken in April 2017 in the National Library of Medicine database (Medline) through its online site (PubMed), followed by searches in the Cochrane, EMBASE, ScienceDirect, and ProQuest Dissertation and Thesis databases. The main inclusion criterion for studies was that linear CBCT measurements were performed for quantitative assessment (e.g., height, width) of the alveolar bone at edentulous sites or measuring distances from anatomical structures related to implant dentistry. The studies should compare these values to clinical data (humans) or ex vivo and/or experimental (animal) findings from a "gold standard."
Results: The initial search yielded 2,516 titles. In total, 22 studies were included in the final analysis. Of those, two were clinical and 20 ex vivo investigations. The major findings of the review indicate that CBCT provides cross-sectional images that demonstrate high accuracy and reliability for bony linear measurements on cross-sectional images related to implant treatment. A wide range of error has been reported when performing linear measurements on CBCT images, with both over- and underestimation of dimensions in comparison with a gold standard. A voxel size of 0.3 to 0.4 mm is adequate to provide CBCT images of acceptable diagnostic quality for implant treatment planning.
Conclusions: CBCT can be considered as an appropriate diagnostic tool for 3D preoperative planning. Nevertheless, a 2 mm safety margin to adjacent anatomic structures should be considered when using CBCT. In clinical practice, the measurement accuracy and reliability of linear measurements on CBCT images are most likely reduced through factors such as patient motion, metallic artefacts, device-specific exposure parameters, the software used, and manual vs. automated procedures.
