Imaging Prescription Patterns Among Dentists
Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Dental and Medical Sciences (IOSR-JDMS) - Year 2018, Vol 17, Issue 11
Abstract
To our knowledge, there are no data in the English literature to characterize the pattern of prescribing images among dentists. Therefore, we surveyeddentists to determine their habits when requesting images for their patients. Ninety-five recent graduates were surveyed before a continuing education lecture,of which 93 responded. We foundthat recent graduates are unclear about the indications and limitations of the different dental imaging modalities. Therefore, continuing education courses in oral radiology that discuss and compare the available imaging techniques are neededto achieveoptimalpatientcare.
