Cone Beam CT
Cone Beam CT is state of the art technology for producing three dimensional imaging for Dentists, Oral Surgeons and Implantologists to more accurately diagnose and treat patients.
CBCT Advantages
- Near real-time 3-D images
- 360-degree views
- Approximately 20 seconds scan time
- 95 percent less radiation exposure than traditional CT scans
- Non-invasive, comfortable, open-seating environment
- Enables doctors to share a visual diagnosis with patients
- 3-D mapping tools enable specialists and technicians to devise a more sophisticated treatment plan
- Enables doctors to identify and analyze degenerative and adaptive changes in all three dimensions of the TMJ
- 3-D images enable doctors to identify the most restricted areas and provide airway analysis in a fast, non-invasive procedure
- DICOM 3-compatible data
- Accurate analysis of bone height and density make it perfect for planning implants
- Full-color, precise reports
Five Reasons Not to Buy Your Own CT Machine
- Cost to own CBCT is $18,000 annually
- Yearly maintenance can be very expensive
- i-CAT requires extensive training (up to six months)
- Requires additional resources to deal with billing through insurance companies
- Occupies chair/room that could be used for additional patients

TMJ
Rely on us for comprehensive TMJ images and animations. Using the CBCT Cone Beam 3D Imaging, we provide complete TMJ workups consisting of Lateral and Coronal slices as well as 3D rendering.
TMJToday, with the use of the Cone Beam 3-D Imaging System, Wilson Imaging Centers can provide your practice with a complete TMJ workup, consisting of true-size panoramic and 3-D rendering, axial and coronal views of the face as well as lateral and frontal views.
Because many of the degenerative conditions that take place in the TMJ require all three dimensions to properly diagnose and develop a treatment plan, traditional X-rays do not suffice. Cone Beam CT imaging is the only way to get a comprehensive view of the TMJ, enabling you to fully analyze all angles and dimensions.
Wilson Imaging Centers can provide a wide array of TMJ images and animations.
Airway Analysis
Our fast, relaxed and non-invasive approach using the CBCT Beam 3-D Imaging System produces detailed, 3-D volume reports that clearly identify the most restricted areas.
From ear, nose and throat (ENT) specialists to orthodontists looking for a better way to diagnose and treat dysfunctional airway paths, the CBCT offers proven benefits:
- Ability to create 3-D volume of airways to better view sagittal, coronal and axial planes
- Measure volume of selected area and identify most constricted area
- View soft tissue and bony structures
