Limitations of 2D imaging in Oral Surgery

Overview

The British Association of Oral Surgeons (BAOS) is pleased to partner with the Royal College of Surgeons of Edinburgh to introduce a webinar series covering the latest advancements and techniques in oral surgery.  Aimed at both primary and secondary care practitioners, the series focuses on the diagnosis and management of key conditions commonly encountered in practice. The engaging lectures are presented by highly respected oral surgeons from across the country, dedicated to enhancing education for practitioners on a national scale.

Aims

This webinar will provide an understanding of the various 2D and 3D imaging modalities available to use in Oral Surgery and their individual limitations. The lecture also highlights how 3D imaging can be formatted and utilised to justify its use and maximise understanding of the information captured by it.

Learning Objectives

By the end of this webinar, attendees should be able to:

• Understand how to format a CBCT scan to extract all data needed from it.
• Discuss different image modalities used in Oral Surgery and understand their uses and limitations.
• Interpret certain radiological features on a plain xray and be able to determine if further investigation is warranted.
• Identify when a CBCT scan is needed to assess an area further.
