Temeke Regional Referral Hospital has officially launched specialized training for its medical staff on the use of the advanced CBCT (Cone Beam Computed Tomography) X-ray machine.
The program targets staff in Dentistry, Ear, Nose and Throat (ENT), and Radiology departments.
The training aims to equip dental specialists and radiographers with the skills to use this modern diagnostic technology effectively, ensuring patients receive accurate and high-quality care.
CBCT X-ray is a state-of-the-art machine that produces high-resolution 3D images of complex areas, including teeth, jaws, nose, throat, eyes, and the skull.
Compared to standard X-rays, CBCT offers clearer and more precise imaging, helping doctors diagnose conditions accurately and plan treatments more effectively.
Hospital officials say this initiative will strengthen diagnostic services and improve patient care by ensuring staff are well-trained in cutting-edge medical technology.
