Abstract
An imaging system is described. In one aspect, a method includes accessing pressure sensor data from a pressure sensor being bitten by a patient, accessing occlusal pattern data corresponding to the patient, correlating the pressure sensor data with the occlusal pattern data, and identifying a location of the pressure sensor relative to the teeth of the patient based on the correlated pressure sensor data with the occlusal pattern data.
Claims19
A method comprising:
- accessing pressure sensor data from a pressure sensor being bitten by a patient;
- accessing occlusal pattern data corresponding to the patient;
- correlating the pressure sensor data with the occlusal pattern data;
- identifying a location of the pressure sensor relative to teeth of the patient based on the correlated pressure sensor data with the occlusal pattern data;
- identifying a pose of an x-ray sensor relative to the teeth of the patient based on the location of the pressure sensor, the pressure sensor disposed at a preset location on the x-ray sensor;
- identifying a pose of an x-ray source relative to the pose of the x-ray sensor;
- and
- generating a simulated x-ray image based on the pose of the x-ray source relative to the pose of the x-ray sensor.

A system comprising:
- an imaging system configured to:
- access pressure sensor data from a pressure sensor disposed between teeth of a patient, access occlusal pattern data of the patient, correlate the pressure sensor data with the occlusal pattern data, and identify a location of the pressure sensor relative to the teeth of the patient based on the correlated pressure sensor data with the occlusal pattern data;
- and
- a guidance system configured to:
- identify a pose of an x-ray sensor relative to the teeth of the patient based on the location of the pressure sensor, the pressure sensor disposed at a preset location on the x-ray sensor, identify a pose of an x-ray source relative to the pose of the x-ray sensor, generate a simulated x-ray image based on the pose of the x-ray source relative to the pose of the x-ray sensor.
