Endodontic studies generate high resolution scans to capture the relevant features, increasing the potential for missed findings. BeamReaders Oral and Maxillofacial Radiologists review the entire scan volume for pathology ensuring you are covered.
CBCT can often identify entities that can be difficult to detect with intraoral radiographs such as: lateral canals, cemental tears, and radiographic features that differentiate malignancy from infection.
Under the conditions of this study, preoperative CBCT imaging provides additional information when compared with preoperative periapical radiographs, which may lead to treatment plan modifications approximately 62% of the cases.
Every radiology report comprehensively evaluates the entire scan volume.
Confirm/rule out odontogenic origin of anomalies.
Identify/rule out periapical, radicular, and periodontal pathosis.
Identify cemental tears.
Identify/rule out radiographic evidence of root/coronal/alveolar fractures.
Identify/rule out root resorption and abnormal anatomy.
Identify canal configuration, calcification, missed canals, and perforations.
BeamReaders Radiology Reports describe and visualize abnormalities that may affect your orthodontic planning, so you can plot the best treatment course and get your patient off on the right foot.
"The advent of CBCT has made it possible to visualize the dentition, the maxillofacial skeleton, and the relationship of anatomic structures in three dimensions."
’‘Previous findings have been validated in clinical studies in which primary endodontic disease detected with intraoral radiographs and CBCT was 20% and 48%, respectively."
’‘If a clinician has a question regarding image interpretation, it should be referred to an oral and maxillofacial radiologist."

A BeamReaders Oral and Maxillofacial Radiologist can help you get the most information from your limited FOV CBCT imaging!
"When we go to conferences about the use of CBCTs in guided surgery, etc., we are told that we're responsible for the entire field of view and it's prudent to have our scans evaluated by a radiologist. But then we leave the conferences and we don't really know where to turn for those services. When I found BeamReaders, it was like a weight was lifted off my shoulders. My BeamReaders radiologist has been fantastic to work with on all my cases!"
