Journal Title: Indian Journal of Dental Advancements - Year 2016, Vol 8, Issue 4

Abstract

C-arm computed tomography is a new and innovative imaging technique. In combination with 2D fluoroscopic or radiographic imaging, information provided by 3D C-arm real time imaging can be valuable for therapy planning, guidance and outcome assessment in the field of modern endodontics. This paper reports a case on bypassing separated instrument and other one on root canal treatment, using Artis zee C-arm CT system first time in endodontic practice.
