Estimation of the radiation dose for dental spectral cone-beam CT.

CONCLUSION: SCBCT showed comparable doses with other CBCT devices, but DAP values were generally above currently published DRLs. Spectral imaging might allow for artefact reduction at comparable dose levels, which should be assessed in further image quality studies at both a technical and diagnostic level.
