Cone Beam and CT Scan for the Diagnosis of Otosclerosis (TACOS) (TACOS)

Comparison of Cone Beam With CT Scan for the Diagnosis of Otosclerosis

Computed tomography scan (CT) is routinely used for the diagnosis and the pre-operative assessment of otosclerosis.

The cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) is a imaging technique with reduced irradiating and, therefore, could replace the CT.

In this study, a CBCT will be proposed to all patients undergoing a CT exam for the diagnosis and/or the pre-operative assessment of an otosclerosis.

The results of the CBCT will be compared to those of the CT scan.
