Cone beam computed tomography is an innovative medical imaging technique that provides endodontists with three-dimensional views of the patient's teeth and surrounding structures.... During a CBCT scan, the machine rotates around the patient, capturing images using a cone-shaped X-ray beam. These images are then used to construct a 3-D [three-dimensional] representation of the patient's teeth, oral and maxillofacial region(mouth, jaw, and neck), and ears, nose, and throat. 6, record 1, English, - cone%20beam%20computed%20tomography

In machine learning, data labeling is the process of identifying raw data(images, text files, videos, etc.) and adding one or more meaningful and informative labels to provide context so that a machine learning model can learn from it. For example, labels might indicate whether a photo contains a bird or car, which words were uttered in an audio recording, or if an x-ray contains a tumor. 2, record 2, English, - label
