Cone Beam Computed Tomography in Veterinary Dentistry

Journal of Veterinary Dentistry, 2012
The purpose of this study was to assess the feasibility of cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) in imaging dogs and cats for diagnostic dental veterinary applications. CBCT scans of heads of six dogs and two cats were made. Dental panoramic and multi-planar reformatted (MPR) para-sagittal reconstructions were created using specialized software.

Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) in Endodontics

Dental Update, 2010
Cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) is an extra-oral imaging system which produces 3-dimensional scans of the maxillofacial skeleton. It is useful in overcoming the limitations of conventional radiography. CBCT is a valuable aid in providing additional information for diagnosis and enabling more predictable management of complex endodontic problems ...

Cone‐beam computed tomography and the dentist

Journal of Investigative and Clinical Dentistry, 2015
AbstractAlthough cone‐beam computed tomography (CBCT) is just 15 years old, it has revolutionized the practice of dentistry, so much so, there is hardly a dental specialty which has not been affected by this technology. Nevertheless, it presents the dentist with a number of important challenges. An initial steep learning curve must be addressed without

Skeletal dosimetry in cone beam computed tomography

Medical Physics, 2009
Cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) is a relatively new patient imaging technique that has proved invaluable for treatment target verification and patient positioning during image‐guided radiotherapy (IGRT). It has been shown that CBCT results in additional dose to bone that may amount to 10% of the prescribed dose.

Cone beam computed tomography - an overview

Journal of Conservative Dentistry, 2007
This review reveals the possibility of using the newest technology of cone beam CT for acquiring three-dimensional images of periapical lesions and, mandibular canal. It has a higher efficiency in X-ray use, inhent quickness in volumetric data aquisition, and potential for reducing the cost of CT.

Cone-Beam Computed Tomography and Navigation

2011
Cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) is a rather new image modality which is now especially in use in dentistry and ENT surgery. Image acquisition comprises a rotating system of x-ray tube and detector deploying 200–600 fluoroscopic image from an examination object.

Essentials of Maxillofacial Cone Beam Computed Tomography

Alpha Omegan, 2010
Cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) is a diagnostic imaging modality that has shown rapid adoption in clinical dental practice over the past 10 years. CBCT images provide high quality, accurate 3-dimensional (3D) representations of the osseous elements of the maxillofacial skeleton.

Endodontic Applications of Cone Beam Computed Tomography

Dental Clinics of North America, 2014
Cone-beam CT (CBCT) has made a dramatic contribution and has been quickly adopted in endodontics. It is a game changer in research and clinical applications. Although CBCT and its application in implantology is well known, the surgical placement of implants is now a factor in endodontics.

Evaluating the mandible with cone-beam computed tomography

American Journal of Orthodontics and Dentofacial Orthopedics, 2010
The purpose of this research was to examine methods for assessing the shape and growth of the mandible 3 dimensionally. Furthermore, 1 method was defined and applied.Thirty mandibles were assessed. An average or mean shape was determined, and the mandibles were ranked quantitatively, by using the root mean square (RMS), according to their variation ...
