CBCT Basics Flashcards
Digital image processing/modifications include:
- compression
- imaging manipulations
- image reconstruction
Imaging manipulations = automated image analysis which includes:
Qualitative image analysis & Quantitative image analysis
Imaging manipulation that changes pixels digital value
qualitative
Imaging manipulation that counts the number of pixels:
quantitative
Data is utilized by other software programs and produces different image presentations:
Image reconstruction
Label the following views from the spiral CT Scan 3D image reconstruction:
- caudal cranial view
- buccal view
- distal view
- lingual view
- mesial view
- occlusal view
You don’t do a CBCT _____, you do a CBCT ____
Image; scan
Use of computers to generate multiple images of an object from digitized density information obtained from various signals; x-radiation (MDCT), (CBCT), magnetic fields (MRI), sonar radiation (ultrasound), etc.
Computed tomography
Two forms of x-ray CT:
- CBCT (Cone beam computed tomography)
- MDCT (Multi detector computed tomography)
CBCT and MDCT are both forms of:
x-ray CT
CBCT was developed in:
Japan Europe before 2000 A.D.
What was the first commercially available cone beam system in the U.S.?
NewTom (in 2001)
What version of Newtom was created in 2001?
NewTom 9000
NewTom 9000 was later renamed:
NewTom3G
NewTom 9000/ NewTom3G is similar to panoramic but captures:
density values of the whole object at different angles
NewTom 9000 (2001) is similar to the first:
MDCT in 1971
Describe the change of design from the NewTom3G to the NewTom VGi:
lay down versions –> stand up version
Label the names of the following machines:
Left: NewTom 3G
Right: NewTom VGi
How is the NewTom VGi EVO similar to a pano?
The patient stands while getting scanned
With the NewTom VGi EVO, the imaging capture process is _____ and the image processing is ____
short; longer
What device produced by Sirona is small r and used more often?
Orthophos XG 3D
Sironas Larger model =
Sironas smaller model =
Gallileo
Orthophos
What models did I-CAT FLX Create?
V8, V10, V17
What is significant about I-CAT FLX V8, V10, and V17 models?
Sit down models
Describe the advantages and disadvantages of a sit down unit:
Takes more time to get patient settled in but there is less chance for motion artifact
The faster the scan, the ____ but the lower the ____
less information; radiation dose
T/F: Most of the sit down units have a larger detector so they tend to be more expensive
True
List what CBCT models are made by CareStream:
CS8100 & CS9300 Select
Caresetream was originally _____ but went ____
Kodak; bankrupt
What models are shown in the following images?
CS 8100 (left)
CS 9300 Select (right)
What model is shown in the following image?
V8, V10 and V17 I-CAT FLX models
What model is shown in the following image?
Sirona Galileo
What model is shown in the following image?
Sirona Orthopthos
Both the CS8100 and CS9100 Select are ____ CBCT units
stand up
VaTech Picasso models are what type of CBCTs?
This company has both sit down and stand-up units
What model is seen in the image below?
VaTech Green 21 model
What models are shown in the following image?
VaTech Picasso models
What model is shown in the following image?
Morita X800
What CBCT unit is UMKC getting next year?
Morita X800
The larger the scan, the more time it takes= ____dose
The higher the dose
Due to a larger scan taking more time and ultimately have a higher radiation dose, you would prefer the patient to:
Sit in a chair so they don’t have to retake the scan
What type of CBCT do we currently have in the school that is Dr. Briners baby?
I-CAT FLX
What type of CBCT is seen in the image below?
Morita 3D Accuitomo 170
The CBCT brand Planmeca has what models?
Planmeca Viso G5; Planmeca Viso G7
What is the difference between the FOVs between Plameca Viso G5 versus Planmeca Viso G7
Plameca Viso G5 : FOVs: 3x3 cm and 30x17cm
versus Planmeca Viso G7: FOVs= 3x3cm; 30x19 cm and 30x30cm
Aside form the FOVs another difference seen between Plameca Viso G5 versus Planmeca Viso G7, is that the G7 uses a:
2 scan technique
T/F: Nearly all CBCT Units are good quality high-end imaging equipment made for a very competitive market place
