Over in Sao Paolo, Brazil, Professor Marco Versiani and his team have been busy scanning teeth with MicroCT. MicroCt is a an exciting tool for the examination of tooth anatomy, and is particularly useful for looking at root canal anatomy. The result of Prof. Versiani’s work is the Root Canal Anatomy Project. They’ve put together a website where you can go and have a look at the results of their work.
