Abstract
Purpose: This study was done to know the usefulness of fractal analysis when evaluating the radiologic changes after decompression on jaw bone cystic lesions using fractal analysis. Materials and methods: 30cases of cystic lesions were followed up after decompression. Panoramic image was used to observe radiologic changes around the cystic lesion. The part of the panoramic image which showed radiologic change was defined as region of interest(ROI); The fractal dimension of the ROI was calculated using box-counting method. Results: Using sign-rank test, there was a statistically significant difference in fractal dimensions after decompression therapy(P<0.0001). The fractal dimensions statistically increased after decompression(the median of D:0.12). Conclusions: The ROI after decompression showed higher fractal dimensions which offer the objective proof of the bone healing around cystic lesions after decompression treatment.

Abstract
Purpose: The aim of this study is to determine whether a difference in the amount of bone graft material is needed between edentulous patients and dentulous patients and to calculate the amount of augmentation for a sinus lift procedure. Methods: 19 patients (20 sinuses) were included to measure maxillary sinus volume. Facial CT scanning was performed using MX 8000 IDT CT devices (Philips, USA). And it was used for IDLvm (The IDL Virtual Machine) 6.0, CT Volume Analyzer Ver 2.3 program to measure maxillary sinus volumes Results: At edentulous patients, volumes (mean±SD) of the inferior portion of the sinuses were 0.56±0.13 cm3 (5mm height), 2.35±0.57 cm3 (10mm height), 4.85±1.10 cm3 (15mm height). At dentulous patients, volumes (mean±SD) of the inferior portion of the sinuses were 0.41±0.18 cm3 (5mm height), 1.76±0.42 cm3 (10mm height), 3.80±0.84 cm3 (15mm height). A significant correlation was found between augmentation height (5mm, 10mm, 15mm) and the calculated sinus volume. (p=0.027, p=0.018, p=0.044) Conclusions: A significant correlation was found between augmentation height (5mm, 10mm, 15mm) and the calculated sinus volume. Detailed preoperative knowledge of sinus lift augmentation volume is helpful in determining the appropriate amount of the bone graft material.
