Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) is a technology commonly used now in imaging centres and dental practices. It is essential to have an in-depth understanding of the indications for this technology, such as learning to diagnose in three dimensions and  to revisit radiological anatomy and pathology from the tomographic perspective.

Assessment method: An online self-assessment test will be carried out at the end of the course so that students can assess the  achievement  of their personal goals and their knowledge of the content of the course.

Course objectives

  • Provide a review of anatomy and oral pathology and familiarise the student with interpreting tomographic images, for planning surgeries as well as diagnosing the most common pathologies.  
  • Highlight the radiographic signs indicating benign and malignant disease. 
  • Teach student to recognise the most common lesions, their radiographic characteristics and their possible differential diagnoses.

 

Skills to be acquired by students

  • Detect pathology on CBCT scans that is not visible in conventional radiology.
  • Differentiate the normal from the pathological, therapeutic and iatrogenic.
  • Protocolise radiological studies to obtain the most information.

Who should take this course

The course is aimed at dentists, stomatologists, maxillofacial surgeons, radiologists.
