RESUMO

The purpose of this study is to compare rapid prototyping models created from cone beam computerized tomography (CBCT) and multislice computerized tomography (CT) data, in order to verify the accuracy of these technologies. A dry skull mandible was submitted in a CBCT (NewTom ? QR, Italy) and CT (Select SP-Elscint, Israel) exams. The tomographies data were processed by two different Medical Image processing systems, 3D-Analyze (Mayo Clinic, U.S.A.) and InVesalius (CenPRA, Brazil). Rapid prototypes models were built in two different rapid prototyping technologies, 3D Printer (3DP) and Selective Laser Sintering (SLS). The dry skull mandible (gold standard) and the eight prototypes, as follows; I-CT-Analyze?3DP; IICT- Invesalius?3DP; III-CT-Analyze?SLS; IV-CT-Invesalius-SLS; V-CBCT-Analyze? 3DP; VI-CBCT-Invesalius?3DP; VIII-CBCT-Analyze?SLS; VIII-CBCT-Invesalius-SLS, were submitted to a reverse engineering process aimed to digitalize the surfaces of the objects to compare each rapid prototype model with the gold standard with a precision of 0.001mm. Percentage deviations errors until 1.0mm and 2.0mm were calculated, compared and statistically analyzed. The prototyped models obtained with multislice computerized tomography data shows more accuracy than those obtained with data from cone beam computerized tomography.
