Cone Beam Computed Tomography
Cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) is an advanced imaging technique for medical diagnosis. It produces a three-dimensional (3D) representation of tissue structures, such as the bones in the face, head and neck, including small anatomical details. It is used to diagnose and monitor dental, oral and maxillofacial, ENT, orthopedic and other medical conditions. CBCT offers a range of advantages over traditional radiographic imaging, such as reduced radiation exposure, increased efficiency and improved accuracy of diagnosis. CBCT also has numerous applications in the dental field, including dental implant placement, root canal treatments and more. In short, CBCT is a powerful, versatile imaging technique that provides significant improvements in diagnosis and treatment planning, which ultimately leads to better patient care.
