Disease relevance of Cephalometry

 

High impact information on Cephalometry

  • The cephalometric angles (SNA, SNB and NSBa) were similar to those found in the control subjects. but MP-H, and PNS-P were significantly longer than those in the control subjects as shown by cephalometry [2].
  • Cephalometry was found to be less valuable with 20%, pregnandiol levels with 9% and placental HSAP with 33% [3].
  • The aim of this study was to assess the effect of nandrolone (Deca-Durabolin, AKZO Nobel, Cambridge, United Kingdom) on mandibular growth in juvenile and adult rats with radiographic cephalometry and immunoradiology [4].
  • This was compared with the angle of the maxillary occlusal plane to the Frankfort plane as measured on lateral cephalometry (the gold standard) [5].
  • Two possible landmarks, C1 and C2, were evaluated as alternatives to the A point (subspinale), in lateral radiographic cephalometry [6].
 

Anatomical context of Cephalometry

 

Associations of Cephalometry with chemical compounds

  • It was concluded that the system was an acceptable method of recording occlusal changes during orthodontic treatment, supplementing routine cephalometry [8].
