Abstract: The creation of a virtual patient relies on the fusion of data from various imaging modalities, with cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) serving as the primary source for detailed volumetric information on bone and tooth structures. The foundational step in building this digital representation of the patient is called image segmentation, which is the process of isolating and defining specific anatomical structures from the imaging data. However, manual tissue segmentation performed by a dental professional is often labor-intensive, time-consuming, and technically demanding. This chapter describes how AI has addressed these issues, particularly in the form of deep learning algorithms, by means of techniques of automated tissue segmentation.
