提出一种无需初始对齐的颌骨CT与口内扫描配准方法,提升精度并评估金属伪影影响。

Coarse-to-Fine Registration of Jawbone CT and Intraoral Scan Data Using GeDi and ICP with Pseudo-IOS Ground Truth

  • 用CT生成伪口内扫描点云作为真值,实现精确评估
  • 结合GeDi与ICP,平均误差仅0.55–0.69毫米
  • 对金属伪影影响有定量分析,结果表明影响微小

在数字牙科和口腔外科中,颌骨CT与口内扫描(IOS)数据的配准对于融合内部骨结构与高分辨率牙齿表面几何至关重要。然而,由于两种模态共享区域有限且真实对应关系未知,该配准极具挑战性,阻碍了注册精度的严格量化评估。本文提出一种伪IOS评估框架:在相同坐标系下从CT数据生成模拟口内扫描点云,其变换关系由构造决定,可作为真实地面真值。基于此框架,提出一种粗到精的配准方法,结合领域通用局部描述符(GeDi)实现不依赖初始位置的全局对齐,以及迭代最近点(ICP)算法进行局部优化,并评估金属伪影的影响。在七个案例的实验中,单独使用ICP在初始位置扰动时频繁陷入局部极小值,而GeDi+ICP在所有评估的颌骨和伪影条件下均保持亚毫米级平均绝对误差(MAE),为0.55–0.69毫米。三因素重复测量分析证实,GeDi+ICP显著优于GeDi alone。金属伪影具有统计学显著的总体影响,但对GeDi+ICP的绝对影响较小。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

In digital dentistry and oral surgery, the registration of jawbone CT and intraoral scanner (IOS) data is essential for integrating internal bone structure with high-resolution dental surface geometry. However, this registration is challenging because the two modalities share only a limited region in common, and their true correspondence is generally unknown. This uncertainty has prevented rigorous quantitative evaluation of registration accuracy. In this study, we propose a pseudoIOS evaluation framework in which a point cloud emulating an intraoral scan is generated from CT data within the same coordinate frame, so that the transformation between them is known by construction and can serve as a true ground truth. Using this framework, we propose a coarse-to-fine registration method that combines a domain-generalizable local descriptor (GeDi) for initialization-independent global alignment with the iterative closest point (ICP) algorithm for local refinement, and also evaluate the influence of metal artifacts on registration. In experiments on seven cases, ICP alone frequently converged to local minima from a perturbed initial position, whereas GeDi$+$ICP maintained submillimeter mean absolute error (MAE) across all evaluated jaw and artifact conditions (0.55-0.69 mm). A three-way repeated-measures analysis confirmed that GeDi$+$ICP was significantly more accurate than GeDi alone. Metal artifacts had a statistically detectable overall effect, but their absolute impact on GeDi$+$ICP was small.
