Topic : Focused Field Cone Beam Computer Tomography in Endodontic Practice
Date : 11 June 2010
Time : 9.00am-12.00pm
Venue : Room 305, Kuala Lumpur Convention Centre
Fee : RM 150

Endodontic therapy depends on diagnostic radiographs and image-guided treatment. Periapical and panoramic radiography have been augmented by the recent introduction of high-resolution focused field cone beam computed tomography (CBCT). These advanced imaging modalities allow three-dimensional assessment of odontogenic and non-odontogenic lesions, root canal morphology,root and alveolar fractures, resorptive lesions and anatomy prior to surgery. This lecture will highlight the advantages of CBCT imaging in light of recent research demonstrating a significant increase in lesion visualization and associated anatomy when compared to two-dimensional radiography.
