This article addresses the use of CT and other imaging modalities in oral and maxillofacial
surgery, with an emphasis on dentoalveolar surgery. In the 2005 issue of the Atlas of the Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery Clinics of North America, Dodson [
[1]
] provided an excellent overview on “Interactive CT Software in Oral and Maxillofacial
Surgery.” This article provides an update on the use of CT and presents additional
information that reflects further changes and advances that will be of use to the
practicing surgeon. We encourage the reader to read the article by Dodson in conjunction
with ours.To read this article in full you will need to make a payment
