A computer-implemented method, system, and instructions can include receiving a reconstructed volume of an object; determining an air density and a material density from the reconstructed volume of the object; subdividing the reconstructed volume into one or more blocks, each block comprising one or more voxels; determining one or more contrast blocks within the reconstructed volume; and determining a reconstruction quality based on the number of contrast blocks in the reconstructed volume.

CT reconstruction quality control

A system and method can determine one or more CT scanner calibration parameters from a plurality of calibration object projections in a plurality of radiographs.

CT scanner calibration

Computer-implemented method and system automatically detects an out-of-view CT scan by receiving a voxel density file, determining a threshold iso-value of density between air density and a material density of one or more scanned objects in the voxel density file, and evaluating, using the threshold iso-value of density, one or more horizontal slices of the voxel density file to determine whether at least a portion of the one or more scanned objects is out of view.

Out-of-view CT scan detection

A computer-implemented method and system compresses CT reconstruction images and can include: receiving a volumetric density file including one or more voxels; replacing one or more voxel density values below an air density value with the air density value; replacing one or more voxel density values above a material density value with the material density value; determining one or more voxels of interest; replacing one or more non-interesting voxel density values below a material surface density with the air density value; replacing one or more non-interesting voxel density values above the material surface density with the material density value; quantizing all voxels to provide a reduced volume image; and compressing the reduced volume image to provide a compressed volume image.

Compression of CT reconstruction images

A computer-implemented method and system performs segmentation on at least a portion of the digital jaw to provide one or more digital surface segments, determines a digital tooth center for at least one digital tooth in the digital jaw, determines a digital tooth area around the digital tooth center, deletes one or more surface segments not intersecting with the digital tooth area; and smooths a mesh boundary.
