Volumetric Analysis and Anatomical Variations of the Maxillary Sinus: A Cone-Beam Computed Tomography Study

Puntos clave

The study found significant differences in maxillary sinus volume and dimensions between male and female subjects.
Volumetric analysis utilized 64 CBCT scans, employing advanced software for precise measurements.
Measurements included length, width, and height of the sinus, calculated using 3D imaging techniques.
Findings indicate notable anatomical variations in the maxillary sinus among different demographics.

Resumen

Materials and Methods: The study was conducted using 64 CBCT scans of the subjects belonging to the age group 18-50 years. Using Care Stream 3D imaging software, the scans were exported and read in an orthogonal slicing view. The width and length of the sinus were measured in axial section, whereas the height was measured in coronal section. Volume and area of sinus were calculated using 3D Slicer software. The assessment of septa was done in axial, coronal and sagittal sections. Independent t-test was done to compare the parameters between male and female subjects.
