About
Lenhard Pennig is a leading researcher in musculoskeletal imaging, specializing in the development and clinical application of cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) for extremity trauma. His work centers on the innovative twin robotic X-ray system, which combines conventional radiography with advanced 3D imaging capabilities. Pennig’s major contributions include demonstrating the clinical value of CBCT in guiding treatment decisions for small bone and joint injuries, as evidenced by his highly cited 2020 study (25 citations) showing its impact on trauma management. He has systematically evaluated image quality and dose reduction potential, comparing CBCT to high-resolution multidetector CT (MDCT) in wrist and elbow imaging, with studies accumulating 19 and 11 citations respectively. Pennig’s research also explores technical advancements such as tin prefiltration and iterative metal artefact reduction to improve post-surgical follow-up imaging. With over 75 total citations across his most-cited works, his findings have established CBCT as a powerful, low-dose alternative for appendicular skeleton imaging, directly influencing clinical protocols and device optimization in orthopedic radiology.
