I-Cat Scan Cone Beam CT (CBCT) technology is rapidly replacing two dimensional radiography in the medical world. Virtual patients may be viewed on a screen and multiple sectional views observed in order to obtain more definitive diagnostic and treatment options. The authors give a brief overview of some opportunities available using I-Cat technology as well as multiple actual cases where subjective diagnosis has been reduced substantially through CBCT technology.
I-Cat扫描锥形束CT(CBCT)技术正在医学领域迅速取代二维放射成像。虚拟患者图像可以在屏幕上查看,并能观察多个截面视图,以便获得更明确的诊断和治疗方案。作者简要概述了使用I-Cat技术的一些机会,以及多个通过CBCT技术显著减少主观诊断的实际案例。
