Comparative Evaluation of Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT)
Abstract
Selecting a CBCT system that meets the needs for a dental facility can often be challenging. This process is complicated further by sparse scientific literature and the lack of standards to compare the various CBCT systems. Similar image enhancement features are often referred to by proprietary names. One feature such as metal artifact reduction is referred to by many different names depending upon the manufacturer and is applied at different times, in some cases before and in other cases after image acquisition. Several companies provide features not available on other systems, such as choosing the number of basis images, arc of rotation, model scanning ability, surface rendering capabilities, and use proprietary nomenclature to refer to similar processes
