Imaging services

In conjunction with CanadaBay Imaging, ADA NSW Centre for Professional Development (CPD) have launched an imaging service offering both Cone Beam 3D CT and 2D OPG scans.

This important service is available to all dental practitioners for referral of patients. Please note that it is not necessary to be a specialist in order to refer for Cone Beam CT imaging. All registered dentists can refer their patients for imaging services.

Referral forms can be requested from CPD or downloaded here: CanadaBay referral form.

For those not familiar with Cone Beam Volumetric Tomography (CBVT), this imaging technology is applicable in a broad range of situations, reducing the patient radiation dose by between 60-80 percent when compared to conventional CT scans and providing high quality and informative images. All scans provide you with a clear assessment of your patient as they are reported by Oral Surgeons, with ENT pathology reported by an ENT surgeon.

The applications include:

Implant planning
Third molar extractions
Impactions
TM joints
Jaw surgery planning
Fractures
Temporal bone assessment
Endodontic assessment
Orthodontic assessment
Periodontal assessment
Supernumeraries
Airway assessments
Panoramics
Cephalometrics
Cysts & lesions
Sinus & skull base assessment

CanadaBay Imaging provides each referring practitioner access to a unique File Transfer Protocol site (FTP) to enable download of patient files as well as providing hard and soft copy 3D manipulation capability. Out of pocket expense to your patient with a Medicare card is minimised to only $79.00 for CBVT scans and $40.00 for OPG images.

We trust this service will be of great benefit to you and your patients and look forward to your support in this venture.
