Visualizing TMJ Osseous Morphology with OP 3D LX part 2

Her patient’s symptoms have dramatically improved since treatment began and now it’s time for Dr. Archambault to take a follow-up scan. She details the settings used to capture the scan on her ORTHOPANTOMOGRAPH™ OP™ 3D™ LX and discusses the valuable insights she was able to get into the active disease of the joint. 

You’ll see:

• The detailed treatment plan carried out by Dr. Archambault to address her patient’s TMJ pain.
• The four-month follow up scan that showed radiographic evidence of healing with remineralization of the cortical outline of the condylar head.
• How her TMJ imaging capabilities have significantly advanced since using the OP 3D LX and its small FOV spatial resolution.
