Abstract

This paper is aimed to investigate the possibility of using a new method of dose and image quality optimization by employing visual grading analysis with a slight modification. Cone beam CT was utilized with different exposure settings to acquisition several images to skull phantom. Three different observers were involved with moderate agreement using Kappa factor. As a result, the new method introduced could be applied successfully in radiation dose and image quality optimization with the potential of achieving low dose level protocols with acceptable image quality in dental implantalogy.
