Abstract

The purpose of this review is comprehensively examining the application and effectiveness of Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) in assessing the upper airway among the Indian population. This assessment spans across various demographic and clinical contexts, including both adults and children, to provide a holistic view of the capabilities and impacts of CBCT technology in this domain. This review aims to synthesize current research, highlight clinical applications, and identify potential areas for future exploration and improvement in the use of CBCT in airway analysis.

Keywords: Upper airway, obstructive sleep apnea, Cone Beam Computed Tomography
