A jaw phantom with various known densities of anatomical parts (e.g. soft tissue, cortical bone, trabecular bone, tooth enamel, tooth dentin, sinus cavity, spinal cord and spinal disc) has been used to test the accuracy of the Hounsfield unit of cone beam computed tomography in estimating the mechanical density (true density). The Hounsfield unit of cone beam computed tomography data was evaluated via the MIMICS software using both two-dimensional and three-dimensional methods, and the results showed correlation with the true density of the object. In addition, the results revealed that the Hounsfield unit of cone beam computed tomography and bone density had a logarithmic relation, rather than a linear one. To this end, the correlation coefficient of logarithmic correlation (R 2 = 0.95) is higher than the linear one (R 2 = 0.77). © IMechE 2018. date: 2018 publisher: SAGE Publications Ltd official_url: https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-85058694413&doi=10.1177%2f0954411918806333&partnerID=40&md5=f98a8abf14363926d2d268eff7369e7c id_number: 10.1177/0954411918806333 full_text_status: none publication: Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part H: Journal of Engineering in Medicine volume: 232 number: 12 pagerange: 1168-1175 refereed: TRUE issn: 09544119 citation: Genisa, M. and Shuib, S. and Rajion, Z.A. and Arief, E.M. and Hermana, M.
