Such a surgical procedure requires radiographic imaging pre- and postoperatively for diagnosis, treatment planning, and outcome assessment. Cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) has become a well-established imaging modality in the dentomaxillofacial region. The following narrative review is aimed to provide clinicians with an overview of the role of three-dimensional (3D) CBCT imaging for diagnostics, treatment planning, and postoperative monitoring of SFE procedures. CBCT imaging prior to SFE provides surgeons with a more detailed view of the surgical site, allows for the detection of potential pathologies three-dimensionally, and helps to virtually plan the procedure more precisely while reducing patient morbidity. In addition, it serves as a useful follow-up tool for assessing sinus and bone graft changes. Meanwhile, using CBCT imaging has to be standardized and justified based on the recognized diagnostic imaging guidelines, taking into account both the technical and clinical considerations. Future studies are recommended to incorporate artificial intelligence-based solutions for automating and standardizing the diagnostic and decision-making process in the context of SFE procedures to further improve the standards of patient care.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/diagnostics13101684","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,5,10]],"date-time":"2023-05-10T03:49:06Z","timestamp":1683690546000},"page":"1684","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":43,"title":["CBCT for Diagnostics, Treatment Planning and Monitoring of Sinus Floor Elevation Procedures"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"13","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-4203-0681","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Nermin","family":"Morgan","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"OMFS IMPATH Research Group, Department of Imaging & Pathology, Faculty of Medicine, KU Leuven, 3000 Leuven, Belgium"},{"name":"Department of Oral Medicine, Faculty of Dentistry, Mansoura University, Mansoura 35516, Egypt"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Jan","family":"Meeus","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, University Hospitals Leuven, Campus Sint-Rafael, 3000 Leuven, Belgium"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-6250-2650","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Sohaib","family":"Shujaat","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"OMFS IMPATH Research Group, Department of Imaging & Pathology, Faculty of Medicine, KU Leuven, 3000 Leuven, Belgium"},{"name":"Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, University Hospitals Leuven, Campus Sint-Rafael, 3000 Leuven, Belgium"},{"name":"King Abdullah International Medical Research Center, Department of Maxillofacial Surgery and Diagnostic Sciences, College of Dentistry, King Saud bin Abdulaziz University for Health Sciences, Ministry of National Guard Health Affairs, Riyadh 11426, Saudi Arabia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-7565-9246","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Simone","family":"Cortellini","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Oral Health Sciences, Section of Periodontology, KU Leuven, 3000 Leuven, Belgium"},{"name":"Department of Dentistry, University Hospitals Leuven, KU Leuven, 3000 Leuven, Belgium"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-7773-8957","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Michael M.","family":"Bornstein","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Oral Health & Medicine, University Center for Dental Medicine Basel UZB, University of Basel, 4058 Basel, Switzerland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-3461-0363","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Reinhilde","family":"Jacobs","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"OMFS IMPATH Research Group, Department of Imaging & Pathology, Faculty of Medicine, KU Leuven, 3000 Leuven, Belgium"},{"name":"Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, University Hospitals Leuven, Campus Sint-Rafael, 3000 Leuven, Belgium"},{"name":"Department of Dental Medicine, Karolinska Institute, 141 04 Huddinge, Sweden"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2023,5,10]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"803","DOI":"10.1111\/clr.13619","article-title":"Alveolar ridge preservation and early implant placement at maxillary central incisor sites: A prospective case series study","volume":"31","author":"Chen","year":"2020","journal-title":"Clin.
