Feasibility of photon-counting spectral CT in dental applications—a comparative qualitative analysis

Although microCT provides detailed information about small anatomical structures, it is not suitable for in vivo use. However, the PCSCT scanner was able to detect small anatomical structures in teeth comparable to CBCT, as well as being superior in reducing metal artefacts from dental implants. This study showed that PCSCT is a promising modality for future dentistry applications.
