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. This course demystifies CBCT protocols and focuses on task-specific acquisition strategies so clinicians can maximize diagnostic value while minimizing radiation exposure and applying the ALADA principle. The program includes lecture content on acquisition differences from 2D imaging, protocol selection for clinical scenarios, quality criteria for acquisition, and implementation of ALADA for patient safety.
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.
