OCT methods are based on depth-resolved optical reflectivity and have been developed to reduce the invasiveness and radiation exposure inherent to other techniques.\n                    <jats:bold>\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">Methods:<\/jats:italic>\n                    <\/jats:bold>\n                    Twelve extracted human mandibular teeth (totaling 25 roots) that were free of caries, calculus, and root treatment were used, and assessed by microfocus computed tomography, the current gold standard for fracture detection. The ability of appropriately trained observers to detect root fractures using visual, microscopic, and swept-source OCT (SS-OCT) techniques were compared. micro-CT and SS-OCT produce three-dimensional images of the tooth from which to diagnose fractures, but CT scanning involves radiation exposure that is not required in SS-OCT.\n                    <jats:bold>\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">Results:<\/jats:italic>\n                    <\/jats:bold>\n                    Seventeen of the 25 roots were found to have fractures by microfocus CT. These findings were replicated by SS-OCT, which revealed fractures exhibiting identical origin, size, and angulation within the root. We found that SS-OCT gave results compatible to the gold standard technique, and that SS-OCT and microscopy were more effective for identifying root fractures than was visual observation alone.\n                    <jats:bold>\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">Conclusions:<\/jats:italic>\n                    <\/jats:bold>\n                    SS-OCT may represent a novel, noninvasive, noncontact and nonexposure alternative to the conventional methods used for assessing root fractures in teeth.\n                  <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1089\/pho.2012.3383","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2012,12,16]],"date-time":"2012-12-16T16:23:04Z","timestamp":1355674984000},"page":"23-27","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":24,"title":["Detection of Root Surface Fractures with Swept-Source Optical Coherence Tomography (SS-OCT)"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"31","author":[{"given":"Toshihiko","family":"Yoshioka","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Tokyo Medical and Dental University","place":["Japan"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Hitoshi","family":"Sakaue","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Showa University School of Dentistry","place":["Japan"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Hitomi","family":"Ishimura","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Tokyo Medical and Dental University","place":["Japan"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Arata","family":"Ebihara","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Tokyo Medical and Dental University","place":["Japan"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Hideaki","family":"Suda","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Tokyo Medical and Dental University","place":["Japan"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Yasunori","family":"Sumi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"National Center for Geriatrics and Gerontology","place":["Japan"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2013,1]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_3_3_2_2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"190","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1600-9657.1988.tb00321.x","article-title":"Iatrogenic vertical root fractures in endodontically treated teeth","volume":"4","author":"Tamse A.","year":"1988","unstructured":"Tamse A. 1988.
