Quantification of voxel values in micro computed tomography using multiple porosity hydroxyapatite blocks.
Microfocus X-ray computed tomography (micro-CT) has been applied as a method for the nondestructive and detailed assessment of trabecular bone patterns and tooth structure. Voxel values obtained from micro-CT are not absolute values. Therefore, voxel values were assessed using hydroxyapatite (HA) blocks with a different vesicle rate to quantify voxel values of micro-CT images in the present investigation.HA blocks with 4 levels of porosity and a block with a soft tissue-equivalent density were used, and the voxel values of each block were measured. Correlations between voxel values of micro-CT and HA densities were analyzed. Also, black and white binary images were produced, and the ratios of white pixels to pixels in regions of interest (ROIs) were calculated. The relationship between voxel values of micro-CT and HA densities could be regressed using a linear equation, and the correlation coefficient was high. Also, there were no significant differences in the regression equations between the first and second times. Voxel values of micro-CT might be convertible to HA densities using a regression equation.
