5.1 Functional description
Similar to computer tomography or magnetic
resonance tomography, sectional images can
be generated with CBCT� With CBCT, an X-ray
tube and an imaging sensor opposite it rotate
around a seated or standing patient� The X-ray
tube rotates through 180°-540° and emits a
conical X-ray beam� The X-rays pass through
the region under investigation and are measured
for image generation by a detector as an attenu-
ated grey scale X-ray image� Here, a large series
of two-dimensional individual images is acquired
during the revolution of the X-ray tube� Using a
mathematical calculation on the rotating image
series via a reconstruction computer, a grey val-
ue coordinate image is generated in the three
spatial dimensions� This three-dimensional coor-
dinate model corresponds to a volume graphic
that is made up of individual voxels� This volume
can be used to generate sectional images (to-
mograms) in all spatial dimensions as well as 3D
views�
