Summary
This study tested whether a cone-beam CT scanner, typically used for dental imaging, can accurately detect and classify fractures in the arms and legs. 43 adults with suspected fractures received both a standard CT and the cone-beam CT. Researchers compared how well the cone-beam CT identified fracture types and soft tissue injuries, and how comfortable patients were during the scan.
