Brief Summary

Low-Dose CBCT Protocol for Pre-Surgical Evaluation of the Mandibular Third Molar.

CBCT investigations with standard and low dose protocol for evalutation of the mandibular third molar.

Detailed Description

Two CBCT scans were acquired of each examination site: one scan using the standard clinical protocol (90kV, 5mA, 9.4s) and one, the low-dose protocol (90kV, 2mA, 9.4s). All exposures were made with a Veraviewepocs 3D F40 (J Morita Corp.; Kyoto, Japan) using a field of view (FOV) of 4.0 x 4.0 cm and a rotation mode of 180°, voxel size of 0.125 mm.
