Detection of Vertical Root Fractures in the Presence of Intracanal Metallic Post: A Comparison between Periapical Radiography and Cone-beam Computed Tomography

TLDR
No significant differences were observed between CBCT and periapical radiography in the detection of vertical root fractures, except for teeth with metallic posts in images from CBCT with a voxel of 0.125 mm and in digital periapsis radiography.

The importance of cone-beam computed tomography in the management of endodontic problems: a review of the literature.

TL;DR: Endodontic cases should be judged individually, and CBCT imaging should be considered in situations in which information from conventional imaging systems may not yield an adequate amount of information to allow the appropriate management of endodontics problems.

Evaluation of Cone-beam Computed Tomography in the Diagnosis of Vertical Root Fractures: The Influence of Imaging Modes and Root Canal Materials

TL;DR: The CBCT imaging modes had little influence in the diagnosis of complete and incomplete root fractures, whereas the presence of intracanal material had greater impact on the diagnostic ability, demonstrating that CBCT is not beneficial for the diagnosed of root fractures when metal posts are present.

Cone-beam Computed Tomography for Detecting Vertical Root Fractures in Endodontically Treated Teeth: A Systematic Review

TL;DR: There is currently insufficient evidence to suggest that CBCT is a reliable test in detecting VRFs in endodontically treated teeth.

Influence of the artefact reduction algorithm of Picasso Trio CBCT system on the diagnosis of vertical root fractures in teeth with metal posts.

TL;DR: Assessment of the influence of the artefact reduction algorithm available on the Picasso Trio 3D(®) imaging system on image quality and diagnosis of vertical root fractures in teeth with intracanal metal posts found mean greyscale values and CNR were significantly decreased in images acquired with the AR.

Artifacts in CT: Recognition and Avoidance

TL;DR: To optimize image quality, it is necessary to understand why artifacts occur and how they can be prevented or suppressed, and how design features incorporated into modern CT scanners minimize some types of artifacts.

Use of Cone Beam Computed Tomography in Endodontics

TL;DR: A literature review and pictorial demonstration of CBCT as an imaging adjunct for endodontics is provided and small field of view images at low dose with sufficient spatial resolution are provided.

Detection of vertical root fractures in endodontically treated teeth by a cone beam computed tomography scan.

TL;DR: The results of this study support the use of 3D Accuitomo 170 for the detection of VRFs in endodontically treated teeth and suggest that the reproducibility and accuracy in VRF detection depend on the CBCT system used.

Evaluation of the severity of temporomandibular joint osteoarthritic changes related to age using cone beam computed tomography

TL;DR: The progression and severity of osseous changes in the condylar head and mandibular fossa are increased with age and patients in older age groups are expected to have more frequent and severe progressive degenerative bony changes due to the development of TMJ osteoarthritis.

Diagnosis of Vertical Root Fractures in Endodontically Treated Teeth Based on Clinical and Radiographic Indices: A Systematic Review

TL;DR: Evidence-based data concerning the diagnostic accuracy and clinical effectiveness of clinical and radiographic dental evaluation for the diagnosis of VRF in endodontically treated teeth are lacking.
