Study Overview

Status

Completed

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.
