Vatech CBCT Unit
Speciality of Kataria Dental Clinic
A Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) machine is a specialized medical imaging device that provides highly detailed 3D images of dental and facial structures. It uses a cone-shaped X-ray beam to capture images from multiple angles, resulting in a comprehensive view of the patient’s anatomy.
One of the key advantages of a CBCT machine is its ability to produce high-resolution images while minimizing radiation exposure. The machine uses a lower radiation dose compared to traditional CT scanners, making it safer for patients.
CBCT machines are commonly used in dentistry for treatment planning and assessment of various dental conditions. They provide detailed information about the teeth, bones, nerves, and soft tissues, helping dentists make accurate diagnoses and plan precise treatment procedures.
The images produced by a CBCT machine are invaluable for various dental procedures such as implant placement, root canal therapy, orthodontic treatment, and evaluation of impacted teeth. The 3D images enable dentists to visualize the entire oral cavity from different perspectives, enhancing their ability to diagnose and treat dental issues effectively.
In addition to dentistry, CBCT machines are also used in other areas of healthcare such as orthopedics, maxillofacial surgery, and ENT (Ear, Nose, and Throat) specialties. They provide detailed anatomical information and aid in pre-operative planning, thus improving patient outcomes and reducing the risk of complications.
Overall, a CBCT machine is a cutting-edge technology that revolutionizes the way dental and medical professionals assess and treat patients. It offers superior image quality, reduced radiation exposure, and enhanced diagnostic capabilities, contributing to better patient care and treatment outcomes.
