note = "Both CBCT devices demonstrated poor accuracy in detecting simulated lesions smaller than 0.8 mm in diameter, fair to good accuracy when simulated lesion diameter was between 0.8-1.4 mm, and excellent accuracy when simulated lesions were larger than 1.4 mm in diameter. PA radiography, at best, demonstrated poor diagnostic accuracy for all simulated lesion sizes. Copyright {\textcopyright} 2012 American Association of Endodontists. Published by Elsevier Inc.
