Abstract
Disclosed are various embodiments for echoperiodontal imaging. In one embodiment, a system includes a transducer configured to transmit a series of ultrasonic signals at a plurality of corresponding locations along a jaw and receive a plurality of echo signals; and an imaging system controller configured to obtain a plurality of echo signal data and a plurality of transducer positions, where each echo signal data corresponds to one of the plurality of transducer position. In another embodiment, a method includes transmitting a series of ultrasonic signals at a plurality of corresponding locations along a jaw; receiving a plurality of echo signals; obtaining a plurality of echo signal data and a plurality of corresponding transducer positions; and reconstruct image data of a portion of the jaw for display on a display device based upon the obtained echo signal data and corresponding transducer positions.
