Study of the mandibular canal and its surrounding canals by multi-view cone-beam computed tomography

ConclusionThis study demonstrates the utility of CBCT imaging in examining mandibular anatomy from multiple angles, providing valuable insights into anatomical variations, and enhancing our understanding of mandibular structures. This research emphasizes the crucial role of meticulous CBCT examination in precisely identifying and understanding key anatomical structures, ultimately reducing the risk of surgical complications.Critical relevance statementBy examining cone-beam computed tomography scans from various perspectives, it is possible to determine the precise position of anatomical structures within the jaw. This allows for a more accurate assessment, reducing the risk of harm to these structures during treatment.Key points• It is crucial to utilize image data effectively to enhance the comprehension of human anatomy.• We captured detailed images of the mandible from different angles and orientations utilizing cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT).• This study provides essential anatomical information for procedural planning to ensure optimal outcomes and patient safety.Graphical Abstract
