Abstract

The tested CBCT function delivers suitable image quality for clinical wrist imaging at significantly lower radiation levels than conventional MDCT. In combination with comfortable positioning options and the ability to perform additional radiographic and fluoroscopic examinations, the twin robotic x-ray system may hold the potential to be a one-stop shop device for trauma-associated wrist imaging.
