At Reveal Diagnostics, innovation drives everything we do. Our partnership with Life West Chiropractic College West has allowed us to bring the technology Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT), into the hands of future chiropractors. Recently, Dr. Ron Oberstein, president of Life West, shared his excitement about CBCT in a video that highlights why this technology is transforming the way chiropractors approach diagnostics.
What Makes CBCT So Special?
CBCT, or Cone Beam Computed Tomography, offers chiropractors a 3D look at the spine that traditional imaging can’t match. As Dr. Oberstein explained it:
"You can literally take away the anterior arch of the atlas, remove the odontoid to see what’s behind, turn it left, right, or put it back. It’s 3D, and we feel this is the future of diagnostics when it comes to science and technology."
With this technology, chiropractors can analyze the upper cervical spine with incredible precision. The ability to measure, rotate, and even isolate specific structures is a game-changer for understanding spinal health and alignment.
Bringing CBCT to Life West
As part of our commitment to advancing chiropractic care, Reveal Diagnostics installed at Life West the first CBCT system at a chiropractic college on the West Coast. This partnership means that students now have hands-on access to this transformative technology, preparing them to provide exceptional patient care after graduation.
In a recent blog post, we explored how this collaboration is equipping future chiropractors with the skills they need to thrive in a rapidly evolving field. For Life West students, learning to use CBCT isn’t just about mastering new tools—it’s about understanding how technology can enhance the lives of their patients.
Why CBCT Matters for Practitioners
For chiropractors, CBCT offers unmatched benefits:
- Detailed 3D Imaging: Visualize the spine from any angle to gain deeper insights.
- Enhanced Precision: Make data-driven decisions with confidence.
- Improved Patient Outcomes: Tailor treatments with a clear understanding of each patient’s unique anatomy.
As Dr. Oberstein noted, CBCT is no longer just the future of diagnostics—it’s the present. Chiropractors adopting this technology now are positioning themselves as leaders in patient care and innovation.
