2020年1月6日 · Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) has become an indispensable diagnostic imaging tool in clinical endodontics. In particular, high resolution limited field of view 3D imaging volumes of the jaws provide endodontists with greater diagnostic accuracy for tooth and root morphology and both tooth and bone related pathology when compared to ...

The three-dimensional radiographic assessment of teeth and their surrounding structures with cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) is desirable for aiding diagnosis and/or management of complex endodontic problems (Rodríguez et al.

Cone beam computed tomography is an innovative medical imaging technique that provides endodontists with three-dimensional views of the patient’s teeth and surrounding structures. In certain cases, CBCT images greatly enhance the endodontist's ability to diagnose, evaluate, and treat their patients.

Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) is a diagnostic imaging modality that provides high-quality, accurate three-dimensional (3D) representations of the osseous elements of the maxillofacial skeleton. CBCT systems are available that provide small ...

CBCT systems are available in different fields of view (FOV). CBCT with limited FOV, which typically is used for endodontic diagnosis, ranges in diameter from 40 –100 mm. Full FOV CBCT, typically used for orthodontics or facial structure imaging ranges from 100 –200 mm.

The ability to obtain an accurate 3D representation of a tooth and the surrounding structures by means of noninvasive CBCT imaging is changing the approach to clinical decision making in endodontics. Clinicians long accustomed to working in very small, three-dimensional spaces are no longer constrained by the limitations of two-dimensional imaging.

CBCT has been used in endodontics for the effective evaluation of the root canal morphology along with the diagnosis of endodontic pathology, assessing root and alveolar fractures, analysis of re-absorptive lesions, identification of non-endodontic pathology, and pre-surgical assessment before root end surgery.[7–9]

2014年2月20日 · Cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) is a relatively new method to visualize an individual tooth or dentition in relation to surrounding skeletal tissues and to create three-dimensional images of the area to be examined (Cotton et al. 2007, Patel 2009). The use of CBCT in Endodontics is rapidly increasing worldwide.

2023年11月17日 · Cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) is a three-dimensional imaging modality that overcomes issues associated with conventional two-dimensional radiography such as anatomical superimposition and geometric distortion. CBCT machines use an X-ray source mounted on a gantry opposing a single two-dimensional flat-panel detector.

2022年11月6日 · A contemporary and novel indication for the use of CBCT allows for the combination of 3D optical scans as well as CBCT data sets to fabricate endodontic stents with guide sleeves to facilitate guided endodontic access cavity preparation in teeth diagnosed with pulp canal obliteration and three-dimensional navigation in endodontic microsurgery .
