Mapping the upper jaw artery using 3D X-ray scans
Part of Ear, nose & throat, Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This study uses existing CBCT scans to map a small artery (the alveolar antral artery) in the upper jaw. It helps dentists and surgeons plan procedures to avoid bleeding.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must have had a CBCT scan (a detailed 3D X-ray) of your upper jaw or sinus area.
- The scan should be clear enough to see small blood vessels and other structures.
- You should not have had any surgery or disease in that area that could affect the scan results.

This study looks at detailed 3D scans of upper back teeth (molars) to understand the shape of the root canals that dentists treat during root canal therapy. It aims to help dentists better treat these teeth.
This study looks at CT scans to measure the upper jaw's sinus spaces and the path of a nerve canal, which helps dentists plan procedures like numbing injections. It does not involve any treatment or medication - only analyzing existing scans.
This study looks at previously taken dental CT (CBCT) scans to find markers on the X-ray that predict where a tiny canal in the lower jaw is. It is not a treatment trial; it helps dentists avoid nerve damage during procedures.
This study looks at existing CT scans of the nose and sinuses to understand how a specific variation in the nasal passage relates to sinus health. It may help doctors better identify and treat sinus problems.
This trial uses your medical images (like MRI or angiography) to create a personalized map of your brain's blood vessels. The goal is to help doctors better plan minimally invasive treatments for aneurysms or arteriovenous malformations.
This study uses CT scans to map the shape of the palate (roof of the mouth) and a nearby canal, to help dentists plan treatments like numbing shots and tooth extractions. If you have a healthy palate and clear scans, you may help improve care for others.
