Conference summary

The use of cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) for the diagnosis and/or management of endodontic problems is increasing; this is reflected in the exponential rise in publications on this topic in the last two decades.

The aim of this presentation is to discuss the applications of CBCT in Endodontics and also to appreciate how CBCT has revealed important prognostic factors which have a direct impact on the outcome of Endodontic treatment.
