Dental Applications of Computerized Tomography

With successful osseointegration of implants as the goal, radiologists and surgeons rely on computerized tomography for accurate preoperative determination of the exact position for optimal implant placement. This comprehensive reference describes how to perform and interpret the dental CT scan, bridging the gap between the radiologist who is faced with an uninterpretable dental CT examination and the surgeon who needs expert advice on evaluating implant sites in difficult cases. Imaging techniques are provided for the radiologist along with detail and advice for the dental surgeon.
