Dr Sharad Sahai

Revolutionizing Dental Imaging Through Technology and Innovation

Dr. Sharad Sahai is a leading expert in dental imaging technology and radiology. He specializes in digital imaging advancements, CBCT applications, and imaging data management. His work focuses on enhancing diagnostic precision and treatment planning through cutting-edge imaging solutions, including digital receptors, Cone Beam CT (CBCT), and intraoral scanners (IOS).
With extensive experience in dental radiology and imaging informatics, Dr. Sahai has been instrumental in addressing key challenges in image data interoperability, storage, accessibility, and interpretation within the dental ecosystem. His expertise extends to cloud-based Dental PACS-RIS systems and the development of standardized, data-driven approaches for dental imaging workflows.

At IODCPC25, Dr. Sahai will present in the Oral Radiology Track of the Preconference, exploring how emerging technologies are transforming dental imaging, optimizing diagnostics, and shaping the future of radiology in dentistry.

About the lecture:

Hardware innovations such as Digital image receptors, ConeBeam CT (CBCT), and Digital impression scanners (IOS) have transformed image quality, diagnostic yield, and treatment outcomes in Dentistry.
Vendor-specific or third-party Image processing software has simplified viewing, processing, and treatment planning with CBCT and IOS data.
Despite the above advances, there are critical gaps in management, viewing, archival, accessibility, and consistent, efficient interpretation of patient image data in the Dental ecosystem, especially for Dental Radiologists, Imaging Centres, and Institutions.
Intra-oral, CBCT, and IOS images for the same patient need to be accessed via manufacturer-specific platforms, and image data interoperability is not possible.
There is no consensus on post-capture management of CBCT volumetric data sets. Dental Radiological interpretations are non-standardized, inefficient, devoid of data-driven decision-making and reproducibility, and incapable of research facilitation (e.g., keyword search).
The author will share his experience with a cloud Dental PACS—RIS and patient management platform for Dental Imaging that addresses most of the problems with existing hardware–software systems in Dentistry.
The author introduces our Dental Imaging workforce to data literacy and a virtual radiological office for accessing, interpreting, appraising, managing, and ethically handling imaging data from variable sources.
