Zusammenfassung:In this paper, we explore the fractal dimension of Cone Beam Computed Tomography images to analyze the trabecular bone structure of healthy subjects. That quantity, computed throughout three distinct approaches, provided us accurate values of normality concerning the radiographic density of this kind of bones and will allow us to establish comparisons with respect to the fractal dimension from patients with different pathologies that may affect the density of trabecular bones.
