Implication

Prospective study demonstrates enhanced sensitivity and specificity of CBCT over traditional radiographic methods.

Key Points

  • CBCT improved detection rates of periapical lesions to 89%, compared to 68% for traditional methods.
  • Sensitivity and specificity for CBCT were 92% and 88%, while traditional radiography was 75% and 78%.
  • Participants included 63 subjects, split into 25 for CBCT and 38 for traditional radiographic evaluation.
  • Findings suggest that CBCT could become a conventional diagnostic tool in endodontics.
