Contribution Of Cone-Beam Computed Tomography In The Decision Of Surgical Management For Bone Lesions Of The Maxillofacial Region

The aim of this study was to evaluate the contribution of cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) in the decision of surgical management for bone lesions of the maxillofacial region. It is a retrospective cross-sectional observational study that includes a sample of panoramic radiography (PR) and CBCT from patients with some type of bone lesion in the maxillofacial region. PR and CBCT images were evaluated by three previously assessed examiners, specialists in oral and maxillofacial surgery. Each image was evaluated randomly, and a surgical procedure was suggested, initially in PR and then in CBCT.
