About this study

Official title: Effect of Metal Artifacts Reduction Protocols and Tube Potential Difference on Metal Artifacts in Cone Beam Computed

The effect of metal artifacts reduction protocols and tube potential difference on the metallic artifacts in cone beam computed tomography

Read the detailed description

Our study is a quantitative as well as a qualitative assessment of the metal artifacts in the CBCT images in a bio models with multiple adjacent dental implants and single isolated implants , while using different MAR protocols inherited in the CBCT soft ware , as well as change in the tube potential difference of the CBCT unit

Conditions
Metal Artifacts
Being tested
CBCT radiation

Receives: Radiation: CBCT radiation

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Dental implant linear measurement

    The implant length and width in millimeters will be assessed in the presence of the artifacts with and without the activation of the MAR tool of the CBCT soft ware, also change in the potential difference will be done with and without the activation of MAR tool

    Measured: 1 month

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Bone- implant interphase

    Qualitative assessment if bone - implant interphase, will be either zero or 1 zero indicate that bone implant interphase cannot be assessed , one indicate that the bone implant interphase can be assessed

    Measured: 1 month

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing CBCT radiation in people with Metal Artifacts, run by Cairo University at 1 site in Egypt.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 23 Jan 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Egypt. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Dental implant linear measurement (time frame: 1 month). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 23 Jan 2020.
