CBCT Protocols Demystified: Safer Imaging, Smarter Decisions
About This Event
Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) has transformed dental imaging by providing three-dimensional views that enhance diagnosis and treatment planning across a wide range of maxillofacial conditions. However, its acquisition process differs fundamentally from conventional two-dimensional modalities, which often makes CBCT appear complex or intimidating. By demystifying CBCT protocols and focusing on task-specific acquisition strategies, clinicians can maximize the diagnostic value of this technology while minimizing radiation exposure, fully embracing the ALADA principle. The result is safer imaging for patients and smarter decisions for clinicians.
Learning Objectives
- Differentiate CBCT acquisition processes from conventional two-dimensional imaging techniques.
- Identify and apply CBCT scan protocols appropriate for various clinical scenarios in dentistry.
- Implement the ALADA principle to ensure patient safety without compromising diagnostic quality.
- Apply quality criteria in CBCT acquisition to optimize diagnostic interpretation.
