Spatial resolution was poorest for MV CBCT, but did not limit the visualization of small anatomical structures. A comparison of treatment plans showed that monitor units calculated based on a prescription point were within 5% difference relative to kV CT-based plans for all machines and all studied treatment sites (brain, neck, and pelvis). ...
CBCT imaging uses ionizing radiation, a potential long-term carcinogen.The general public's awareness of the increased radiation dose and associated risks with CBCT was highlighted in 2010 with the publication of a front-page article in The New York Times (Bogdanich and McGinty 2010) and more recently in Consumer Reports Magazine …

CBCT may be a more sensitive tool for the detection of pathosis and reduce the sample size required compared with studies relying on conventional radiography. Conversely, longer follow-up times may be required as it may take longer for complete periapical healing to be noted on CBCT compared with conventional radiographs. …
Purpose: Anatomical and other changes during radiotherapy will cause inaccuracy of dose distributions, therefore the expectation for online adaptive radiation therapy (ART) is high in effectively reducing uncertainties due to intra-variation. However, ART requires extensive time and effort. This study investigated an adaptive assessment workflow based on …
Purpose: We explore the optimal cone-beam CT (CBCT) acquisition parameters to improve CBCT image quality to enhance intracranial stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) localization and also assess the imaging dose levels associated with each imaging protocol. Methods: Twenty-six CBCT acquisition protocols were generated on an Edge ® linear accelerator …
Cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) systems with rotational gantries that have standard flat panel detectors (FPD) are widely used for the 3D rendering of vascular structures using Feldkamp cone beam reconstruction algorithms. One of the inherent limitations of these systems is limited resolution (<3 lp/mm). There are systems available …

Purpose: This study aimed to assess the diagnostic accuracy of cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) and digital intraoral radiography for the detection of proximal caries adjacent to amalgam, e.max porcelain, and metal-ceramic restorations (MCRs). Materials and methods: Parallel intraoral radiographs were obtained from 40 posterior …
The use of Cone-Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) in Image-Guided Radiation Therapy (IGRT) has become increasingly feasible and popular in recent years. Advances and developments in Flat-Panel Imager (FPI) technology and image reconstruction software allow for linac-mounted 3D CBCT imaging. Taking CBC …
A clinical workflow was developed for urgent palliative radiotherapy treatments that integrates patient simulation, planning, quality assurance, and treatment in one 30-minute session. This has been successfully tested and implemented clinically on a linac with MV CBCT capabilities. To make this app …
INTRODUCTION. It is well known that the anterior mandible contains several anatomical landmarks such as intra bony vascular canal, which is named the mandibular incisive canal (MIC) and lingual foramen.[1,2,3] The lingual foramen is situated in the midline of the mandible, at the level of, superior or inferior to the mental spines.[] These anatomical …
Results: Ten CBCT protocols were introduced including head and neck and patient-size-specific thorax and pelvis/abdomen protocols. Scans from 102 patients with images before and after optimisation were assessed, none of the scans showed image quality changes compromising clinical usability and for some image quality was improved.
Background. The beam hardening effect is a typical source of artifacts in x-ray cone beam computed tomography (CBCT). It causes streaks in reconstructions and corrupted Hounsfield units toward the center of objects, widely known as cupping artifacts.
Introduction. Soon after the development of the first CT scanner, the concept of CBCT was introduced in radiology. 1 It was first applied for angiography before being gradually introduced for other applications. 2–4 Development of specialized CBCT scanners for use in dentistry started in the second half of the 1990s. 5,6 Soon thereafter, the use …
However, 4D CBCT images are degraded by severe streaking artifacts because the 4D CBCT reconstruction process is an extreme sparse-view CT procedure wherein only under-sampled projections are used for the reconstruction of each phase. To obtain a set of 4D CBCT images achieving both high spatial and temporal resolution, we …
CBCT is a widely applied imaging modality in dentistry. It enables the visualization of high-contrast structures of the oral region (bone, teeth, air cavities) at a high resolution. CBCT is now commonly used for the assessment of bone quality, primarily for pre-operative implant planning. Traditionally, bone quality parameters and ...
The use of cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) imaging in the dental profession has blossomed since its inception 15 years ago. CBCT unit design has undergone many …
Dental, oral and maxillofacial region are very sensitive so low radiation imaging technique like Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) is useful for investigation of diseases. But due to low radiation, quality of images is not fine they have noise and low contrast in visual impression. So for dentistry diagnostic purpose it is important to pre-process the CBCT …
The mean CBCT specificity, sensitivity, accuracy values and area under the receiver operating characteristic (AUROC) curve were calculated and compared using the Wilcoxon signed-rank test. Results: The average sensitivity of CBCT for the diagnosis of VRFs was 0.84 ± 0.2. The accuracy and AUC values were 0.81 ± 0.08 and 0.84 ± 0.17, respectively.
