European premiere · Porto, Portugal · 15–16 January 2027

YOU CAN SEE THE SCAN.
CAN YOU SEE WHAT MATTERS?

This is not another CBCT course. This is an intensive, hands-on challenge to the way you interpret images, recognize disease, and make clinical decisions. Advanced CBCT interpretation meets practical AI, taught by two experts who approach diagnosis from different but complementary disciplines.

The idea that changes everything

WHAT YOUR BRAIN DOES NOT KNOW,
YOUR EYES CANNOT SEE.

A sharper scan is not the same as a sharper diagnosis. You cannot recognize a finding you have never learned to look for. Our mission is to change what you notice, what you question, and what you do next.

A different standard of interpretation

MOST CLINICIANS LOOK AT CBCT.
FEW KNOW HOW TO SEE IT.

The most important finding is not always the most obvious one.

It may be a subtle fracture mimic. A cemental tear. An anatomical structure mistaken for disease. A lesion whose pattern does not fit an endodontic origin. Or a limitation in image acquisition that makes the apparent finding unreliable.

Porto is about the unknown unknowns: the diagnoses and imaging pitfalls you may not even realize you are missing.

Why this is not a typical course

LESS PASSIVE WATCHING.
MORE DIAGNOSTIC THINKING.

There is a difference between recognizing an image after someone explains it and knowing what to do when that image appears in your own practice.

What traditional lectures often emphasize

  • Watching the instructor interpret cases
  • Memorizing textbook appearances
  • Learning software features without diagnostic context
  • Hearing about AI without testing its clinical limitations

What you will practice in Porto

  • Interpreting challenging clinical cases yourself
  • Defending a differential diagnosis and identifying uncertainty
  • Connecting acquisition and visualization choices to diagnostic performance
  • Testing AI workflows and critically evaluating their output
The clinical challenges

WHAT YOU OVERLOOK
CAN CHANGE THE TREATMENT PLAN.

Not another tour of impressive scans. Real questions, difficult distinctions, and a disciplined approach to interpretation.

CBCT images and anatomical rendering of maxillary structures

THE PATHOLOGY YOU DIDN'T EXPECT

Look beyond the apex. Evaluate bone patterns, sinus findings, incidental abnormalities, and cases that demand a broader differential diagnosis.

Endodontic CBCT case montage

THE FRACTURE THAT ISN'T ONE

Challenge assumptions about vertical root fractures, cemental tears, lateral canals, artifacts, and other findings that can lead to inappropriate conclusions.

Clinical CBCT viewing and enhancement software

THE TECHNOLOGY BEHIND THE DIAGNOSIS

Understand how scanner capability, voxel size, focal spot, image quality, reconstruction, and visualization affect what you can reliably detect.

What you will take back to your practice

DON'T JUST LEARN MORE.
SEE DIFFERENTLY.

A radiologist's interpretation framework

Approach every volume systematically, including anatomy, pathology, and findings beyond the referring tooth.

Better discrimination of diagnostic look-alikes

Work through fracture mimics, cemental tears, anatomical variations, and lesions with overlapping appearances.

A clearer understanding of imaging limitations

Know when resolution, artifacts, acquisition, and reconstruction support or undermine diagnostic confidence.

Practical AI skills, not just AI headlines

Explore hands-on applications, prompt design, verification, and the risks of plausible but incorrect AI answers.

The AI component

AI IS NOT THE FUTURE SLIDE
AT THE END OF THE LECTURE.

It is part of the hands-on experience.

Work alongside Paula Caffer, PhD, to explore how AI can support clinical reasoning, research, patient communication, and professional workflows, while learning why fluent output is not the same as reliable evidence.

Technology should make your judgment stronger, not replace it.

Before you apply

QUESTIONS WORTH ASKING.

Is this suitable for experienced CBCT users?

Yes. The course is positioned for clinicians who want to move beyond basic navigation and deepen their diagnostic reasoning through difficult cases.

Will we work with real cases?

Clinical case interpretation is central to the hands-on format, including subtle and challenging findings relevant to endodontics.

Is the AI component practical?

Yes. It is designed around applied exercises and critical evaluation, not simply a lecture on AI trends.

Does priority access guarantee a seat?

No. Joining the list means you receive registration information first. Enrollment will be confirmed separately once registration opens.
