Whenever bilateral standing radiographs would have been needed, a WBCT was performed instead. Cone beam CT, be it weight bearing or not, is equivalent to 3D radiography and that is where most of the healthcare benefits are for patients. It is also the most time and cost-efficient modality.

Repeating imaging exams increases the workload of your radiographers who are already stretched too thin; increases the exposure of the affected patients; and contributes to patients’ reduced confidence and satisfaction with your imaging department. The Audio Assist makes it easier for radiographers to hear the patients.

A fundamental goal of radiographers is to complete an imaging exam that provides sufficient information for an accurate clinical diagnosis–and at the lowest possible dose. We also have a Detector Verification alert that signals radiographers when they choose the wrong detector–which would result in the need to repeat the exam.
