According to the National Ambulatory Medical Care Survey the prevalence of sinus disease is estimated to be approximately 14% in the general adult population, and digital tomosynthesis has already been used with success for accurate detection of sinus disease. Studies have shown that DTS is useful in delineation of complex anatomic structures¹. X-ray evaluation of these structures is usually limited and digital tomosynthesis can contribute to diagnosis of TMJ dislocations, orbital fractures, etc. DTS dental applications have also achieved success, including for the purposes of implant planning^{1, 2}.
