Abstract:
The article provides a review of domestic and international scientific literature to reveal the possibilities of cone-beam computed tomography in facial trauma diagnostics. The ratio of maxillofacial trauma continues to grow progressively. The current situation increases the need for high-quality, fast and extremely informative radiology diagnosis for such conditions. At the moment the possibilities of multislice computed tomography are well examined in the facial trauma diagnosis. But the potential of cone-beam computed tomography aren't fully known yet by radiologists and maxillofacial surgeons. This review presents an analysis of the method's technical features, its advantages, disadvantages and special application aspects in facial trauma.
