Automated fractal analysis for mandibular bone evaluation in type 1 diabetes mellitus using a novel single click approach by Melek Tassoker, Yunus Balel, Mediha Erturk, Kaan Sagtas

“…However, FD values in ROI 2, 3, 4, and 5—corresponding to the gonial and interdental areas—were significantly higher in the T1DM group compared to controls, suggesting microstructural differences in trabecular bone. The results indicate that T1DM is associated with region-specific alterations in mandibular trabecular bone architecture. …”
