Insights into Predicting Tooth Extraction from Panoramic Dental Images: Artificial Intelligence vs. Dentists.

Objectives: Tooth extraction is one of the most frequently performed medical procedures. The indication is based on the combination of clinical and radiological examination and individual patient parameters and should be made with great care. However, determining whether a tooth should be extracted is not always a straightforward decision.

Cyto R-CNN and CytoNuke Dataset: Towards reliable whole-cell segmentation in bright-field histological images.

Background And Objective: Cell segmentation in bright-field histological slides is a crucial topic in medical image analysis. Having access to accurate segmentation allows researchers to examine the relationship between cellular morphology and clinical observations. Unfortunately, most segmentation methods known today are limited to nuclei and cannot segment the cytoplasm.

A 5-year prospective study on single immediate implants in the aesthetic zone.

Aim: There is a paucity of long-term data on soft tissue aesthetics of single immediate implants. The objective of this study was to evaluate the 5-year clinical and aesthetic outcome of this treatment concept.

Materials And Methods: Twenty-two periodontally healthy patients (12 men, 10 women; mean age 50) with low risk for aesthetic complications (thick gingival biotype, intact buccal bone wall, both neighbouring teeth present) were consecutively treated with a single immediate implant in the aesthetic zone (15-25).
