Interpretation and Radiographic Reports on Cone Beam CT Images

Also called: CT dental scan report


Cone-beam computed tomography systems are a variation of traditional computed tomography (CT) systems. These systems are often used by dental professionals. Cone Beam CT machines do an X-ray while having a cone-shaped beam scan around the patient.

This is used to create a three-dimensional image from the scans of your teeth, your mouth, jaw, and neck, and ears, nose and throat. The resulting report requires special training to interpret the results correctly.

CBCT is used by radiologists and dental professionals for various clinical applications, including dental implant planning, visualization of abnormal teeth, evaluation of the jaws and face, cleft palate assessment, diagnosis of dental caries (cavities), endodontic (root canal) diagnosis and diagnosis of dental trauma. For dental radiographic reports (Intraoral, Panoramic, Lateral Cephalometric, and CBCT), contact us by phone at (210)567-6958 or send us an email at ddsradintrp@uthscsa.edu
