Abstract

Over the past 50 years, computer technology has evolved enormously. This has made it possible to carry out radiography in a completely new way, allowing to process X-ray images in an advanced manner and to extract the information from the image data. This article gives an overview of some of the most important developments in dental radiology. These include capturing the images, analysing and interpreting the image information and using the images for 3D reconstruction.
