Conditions

CerebroSpinal Fluid (CSF) Leak, Cholesteatoma, Chronic Otitis Media, Otosclerosis, Otospongiosis, Pulsatile Tinnitus

Brief summary

The study objective is to compare the CBCT images generated by the CS 9300 to those generated by conventional CT.

Detailed description

The study objective is to compare the CBCT images generated by the CS 9300 to those generated by conventional CT. It proposes a direct comparison of diagnostic image quality between the CS 9300 and CT for the ability to view and confirm ENT disorders.

MeasureTime frameDescription
Percentage of Participants With >=3 Diagnostic Rating Using Radlex Scale11 monthsPercentage of Participants with \>=3 Diagnostic Rating Using Radlex Scale. Five radiologists participated in reader study using Radlex scale below to analyze and rate participant images. They determined if they could make a medical diagnosis for ENT patients. Used Radlex Scale - 1-Non-diagnostic, Unacceptable for diagnostic purposes. 2-Limited Acceptable, with some technical defect. 3-Diagnostic, Image quality that would be expected routinely when imaging cooperative patients. 4-Exemplary, Good most adequate for diagnostic purposes.

Percentage of Participants With >=3 Diagnostic Rating Using Radlex Scale

Percentage of Participants with \>=3 Diagnostic Rating Using Radlex Scale. Five radiologists participated in reader study using Radlex scale below to analyze and rate participant images. They determined if they could make a medical diagnosis for ENT patients. Used Radlex Scale - 1-Non-diagnostic, Unacceptable for diagnostic purposes. 2-Limited Acceptable, with some technical defect. 3-Diagnostic, Image quality that would be expected routinely when imaging cooperative patients. 4-Exemplary, Good most adequate for diagnostic purposes.

Time frame: 11 months

Population: 96 participants were imaged for this study, but only 76 participant image pairs were analyzed in the reader study. 20 participant image pairs were disqualified by the physicians due movement/unclear image quality.
