About This Book

Interpretation Basics of Cone Beam Computed Tomography is an easy-to-use guide to Cone Beam CT technology for general dental practitioners and dental students. It covers normal anatomy, common anatomical variants, and incidental findings that practitioners must be familiar with when interpreting CBCT scans. In addition to functioning as an identification guide, the book presents and discusses sample reports illustrating how to use this information in day-to-day clinical practice. Organized by anatomical regions, the book is easy to navigate and features multiple images of examples discussed. It also includes a valuable section on legal issues surrounding this new technology, essential for informed and appropriate use.

Appendix 1 Sample Reports

Shawneen M. Gonzalez

Introduction

This appendix includes sample reports of different areas captured on cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) scans. The three reports show example reports for CBCT scans made for various reasons. The general health report is an example of a report for a CBCT scan made with no obvious pathosis. The pathology report is an example of a report for a CBCT scan where there was obvious pathosis and the practitioner wanted more information about the nature and location of the disease process prior to determining the next treatment step. The implant report is an example of a report for a CBCT scan where the practitioner wanted to know quantity of bone for implant placement planning.
