Use of CBCT in Endodontics 

In 2015, AAOMR and American Association of Endodontists (AAE) updated their joint position guidelines on the use of Cone-beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) in endodontic treatment. CBCT should not be used for routine endodontic diagnosis or for screening purposes in the absence of symptoms. CBCT should only be used when imaging cannot be met by lower dose two-dimensional (2D) radiography. Specific clinical recommendations are highlighted in the article.
