Full Description
The book provides sound knowledge of 3D imaging of dentofacial craniofacial region. It guides the students and faculty for understanding the dentofacial craniofacial region in depth. It incorporates the latest techniques, frameworks and technologies in the imaging area of oral health. The book emphasizes on the dentofacial and craniofacial region and thus fills the gap in the medical imaging literature.
The development in this book is not only on the imaging techniques but also emphasis will be on the three-dimensional (3D) frameworks to deal the patients for their diagnosis and treatment planning. The chapters of this book are designed in such a way that the readers may get the complete package of the exploration of the imaging clinical applications of craniofacial areas. This book will be helpful not only for the students and faculty but also for the researchers working in the relevant areas.
This book will provide easy, simple way but the most authentic material to learn the craniofacial region imaging. In this manual we will incorporates authentic, internationally accepted terms and definition. To make it interesting and simple, our approach is to incorporate the material in systematic manner in a simple and easy way by incorporating maximum illustrations and flowcharts. This book provides sound knowledge of various advanced technologies for dentist imaging. This book will highlights the importance and explore the current research in the dentofacial and craniofacial areas.
