What is it indicated for?

Volumetric Tomography is intended to be used for producing cross-sectional (tomographic) radiographic images from the edentulous or dentate area of the jaws. The cross-sectional images provide dimensional information for dental implant planning and information about location of impacted teeth.

Indications for use read by OCR from a scanned FDA summary, so letters may be misread. Check the PDF before quoting it.
