Expert roundtable to highlight opportunities and challenges

ANNAPOLIS, MD, US, December 5, 2022 /EINPresswire.com/ -- RadSite™, a leading accrediting organization promoting performance and quality-based imaging practices, announces the latest webinar in its Cone Beam CT imaging series. The role of radiologists, dentists, and other qualified practitioners when interpreting CBCT studies will be discussed, along with other issues related to optimizing diagnostic images. The roundtable format will provide a dynamic and helpful interactive experience, allowing audience members to ask questions of panel experts as they discuss key trends.

“Since Cone Beam CT imaging systems are now being deployed widely in many specialty settings, it is important to understand when images can be interpreted directly by different specialists and when a radiologist should be involved,” notes, Patrick Browning, MD, RadSite’s Chief Medical Officer and webinar moderator. “During the online roundtable discussion, we expect to identify and address several hot button topics.”

“Ensuring qualified professionals are interpreting Cone Beam CT images is important for a wide variety of reasons including promoting the best clinical outcomes while reducing reading errors,” adds Judith Turner, a senior executive with ProScan. “It is also important to understand what the specific experience, training and certification requirements are to interpret Cone Beam CT exams for each specialty area .”

“Securing proper reads and reporting of those results for dental Cone Beam CT exams is just as important as the medical side,” explains Jacob D. Brown, MD, DentalRay’s CMO. “Often it is important to look beyond the focus of the study to other areas immediately outside the field of view to make sure other potential conditions are identified that might impact the patient’s health.”

“In addition, the fields of dentistry and medicine are becoming more integrated with more dynamic treatment options,” comments Barney Gill, a senior executive with BeamReaders. “But it all starts with making sure the right diagnostic assessment is being made for each patient using tools like Cone Beam CT imaging systems, including the reports, so the right information gets to the patient and their treating provider at the right time. Using a third-party radiologist is often a critical link in this process.”
