Abstract:

A caries detection system and method for quantifying a probability of lesions existing in tissues are presented. Digital X-ray images are segmented and further processed to generate feature statistics inputs for a neural network. The feature statistics include colinearity measurements of candidate lesions in different tissue segments. The neural network is trained by back propagation with an extensive data set of radiographs and histologic examinations and processes the statistics to determine the probability of lesions existing in the tissues.
