Greetings Dr. Axel.
I can't help you with the quote you're searching for, but I hope the
following might be helpful.

The team who first introduced one of the earliest CBCT devices had this to
say: " The machine is dedicated to the dento-maxillo-facial imaging,
particularly for planning in the field of implantology." ( Mozzo, et al. A
new volumetric CT machine for dental imaging based on the cone-beam
technique: preliminary results. Eur. Radiol. 1998. 8(9):1558-1564 )
