Cone Beam Computed Tomography

by Vishal Mehrotra

This book highlights the broad use of CBCT in the dentomaxillofacial region, and also focuses on future software advancements that can further optimize CBCT imaging.Computed tomography (CT) play a paramount role in the accurate diagnosis, treatment planning, and prognostic evaluation of various complex dental pathologies. Cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) presents as a separate C-arm to conventional computed tomography (CT) and it has gained broad acceptance in dentistry in the last 5 years as it generates 3-dimensional (3D) data at lower radiation dose and cost and a higher spatial resolution than conventional CT. The advent of cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) has revolutionized the practice of dentistry, and this technique is now considered the gold standard for imaging the oral and maxillofacial area.
