Midface fractures are best evaluated with what imaging technique?

X-Ray
MRI
Ultrasound
CBCT

The correct answer is: CBCT

Midface fractures are best evaluated with Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) imaging technique. CBCT provides high-resolution, three-dimensional images that are particularly useful in identifying subtle fractures in the midface region. The ability of CBCT to offer detailed images with minimal distortion makes it a preferred imaging modality for assessing complex fractures in the facial skeleton. X-rays, MRI, and ultrasound may have their utility in certain situations but for midface fractures, CBCT is the optimal choice for accurate evaluation.
