Why Micro-CT?
3D overview of biofilm localisation on tooth
See where ultrasonic scaler is most and least effective
Quick and easy

Aims of project
1. Image an artificial biofilm on a tooth
using microCT
2. Use dual energy imaging and Dehist
software to segment artificial biofilm

Why Dual Energy?
Lighter elements absorb low energy x-rays
Heavier elements absorb high energy x-rays
8
Low energy image: More noise but
can see hydrogel High energy image:
Less noise, cannot see hydrogel
