Automatic micro-CT-based evaluation of bone-to-implant contact (BIC) around the implant. a 3D surface reconstruction indicating the superior (implant shoulder) and inferior (implant apex) limit of volume of interest. b Binary images of BIC surface based on a custom processing with CTAn (version 1.16.1.0, Skyscan1272, Bruker Microct, Kontich, Belgium). Orange arrows indicate the series of slices from the implant apex to the shoulder level. Blue lines indicate the position of the images in b which show the amount of peri-implant bone descends from apex to coronal region
