In addition, payment to dental professionals is based on the CDT code(s) reported on the ADA Claim Form, so using the most current codes helps to maximize reimbursement and minimize audit liability. [6] In the near future, dental professionals will be required to use diagnosis codes in support of the procedures and services they provide.
Tomographic systems have significant variability in their applications and geometries (locations of sources and detectors). This variability creates the need for very specific, tailored implementations of the processing and reconstruction algorithms. Thus, most CT manufacturers provide their own custom proprietary software.

In conventional CT machines, an X-ray tube and detector are physically rotated behind a circular shroud (see the image above right). An alternative, short lived design, known as electron beam tomography (EBT), used electromagnetic deflection of an electron beam within a very large conical X-ray tube and a stationary array of detectors to achieve very high temporal resolution, for imaging of ...
The ICD-10 Procedure Coding System (ICD-10-PCS) is a US system of medical classification used for procedural coding.The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, the agency responsible for maintaining the inpatient procedure code set in the U.S., contracted with 3M Health Information Systems in 1995 to design and then develop a procedure classification system to replace Volume 3 of ICD-9-CM.
Typical indications include epiphora and dacryocystitis. [3]DSG allows quantification of tear turnover and drainage. [4] Various quantification models have been developed, which must account for the variable drainage of asymptomatic systems. [5]
Cone beam computed tomography (or CBCT, also referred to as C-arm CT, cone beam volume CT, flat panel CT or Digital Volume Tomography (DVT)) is a medical imaging technique consisting of X-ray computed tomography where the X-rays are divergent, forming a cone.
Schleyer [3] and Kirshner [4] categorized dental software as administrative, clinical, and for the Internet. Zimmerman et al. [5] categorized dental software functions for administration and management of patients documentation, electronic archives of the documentation, telecommunication, computer - aided education, computerizing instruments and techniques in the dental office software ...
