This study evaluated the effect of phantom positioning and the configuration of phantom inserts on the measurement of contrast-to-noise ratio (CNR) in dental CBCT. The work aimed to make pragmatic suggestions for the remedial tolerances for CNR measurements in the routine quality control (QC) of a three-dimensional Accuitomo 170 dental CBCT system (J Morita, Kyoto, Japan).Citation
