Definition of the Region of Interest for the Assessment of Alveolar Bone Repair Using Micro-computed Tomography.

The objective of this study was to evaluate the influence of the extraction socket (distal or lingual root) and the type of region of interest (ROI) definition (manual or predefined) on the assessment of alveolar repair following tooth extraction using micro-computed tomography (micro-CT). The software package used for scanning, reconstruction, reorientation, and analysis of images (NRecon, DataViewer, CT-Analyzer) was acquired through Bruker <  https://www.bruker.
