Conclusion
CBCT is a very useful method for the evaluation of bone trauma,
particularly when CR is negative or doubtful despite the high clinical suspicion of fractures.
The excellent quality of the trabecular image,
the low dose and the few artifacts to the metallic hardware make it the method of choice for the follow-up of the healing.
