Similar to current CT technology Uses cone shaped xray beam 2-D flat panel detector Gives volumetric data

Advantages of CT Elimination of superimposition of structures Improved contrast resolution 1% difference in physical density differences v 10% difference in conventional films Multiplanar reformatted image This means that data can be viewed in either coronal, axial, or sagital planes

Metal artifacts? Worse low contrast detectability Long scan times = motion artifacts Slightly Inferior quality to conventional CT
CBCT Periodontal ligament spaces easily recognizable in the dental CT but not satisfactory in the CBCT

Great for pre-planning for implant surgery Virtual Surgery Conventional CT diagnosis at 1/5 the dose Tumor detection Airway visualization
