Harness imaging as your diagnostic superpower. Expert panelists reveal how to select the right modality for every clinical scenario, interpret findings with confidence across specialties and leverage advanced technologies like cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) to enhance treatment planning and patient communication.

Learning Objectives:

  • Identify appropriate dental imaging modalities for evaluating common oral and maxillofacial conditions across multiple specialties.
  • Master radiographic interpretation and recognize findings across inflammatory, developmental and neoplastic pathologies.
  • Discuss the benefits and limitations of advanced imaging technologies, including cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT), in clinical practice.
  • Apply interdisciplinary perspectives to imaging interpretation in order to improve diagnostic accuracy and patient management.
