The cone beam oral CT commonly used in the market at present mainly comprises a three-in-one oral CT and a large-visual-field professional oral CT.
The two types of equipment can realize the shooting of CT, panorama, cranial orthopaedics and the like, wherein the three-in-one oral CT adopts a scheme of shooting the CT, panorama and cranial orthopaedics by using different detectors respectively, mainly because the field of vision of a main detector is smaller and is not enough to shoot the whole cranial orthopaedics image, an auxiliary detector special for shooting the cranial orthopaedics image is added, but because the auxiliary detector adopts a strip-shaped detector (mainly for reducing the cost), the scanning mode is needed to be adopted when the complete cranial orthopaedics image is needed to be obtained, and the shooting time is long. According to the advantage of large visual field of the large-visual-field professional oral CT, when an image at the front side of the skull needs to be shot, the CT is shot in advance, and the required image is generated through algorithm reconstruction (because the distance between the head of a person in a cluster and a radiation source is required to be different when the CT is shot and the front side of the skull is shot, if the CT is shot directly, the image distortion is too large because the distance between a detector, the head of a patient and the radiation source is too small); however, this method requires a long time, causes a large amount of radiation to the patient, and has poor image quality.
