The authors developed the 3D-cephalogram via combination of 3D-CT and cephalometric analysis.
The 3D-cephalogram can directly express cephalometric data on the surface of skeletal structures in a manner similar to a conventional cephalogram.
This analysis revealed complex facial asymmetries in particular, on either side of the mandible. Images displayed no geometric error due to magnification nor any overlap effect inherent in the conventional cephalogram.
The 3D-cephalogram is helpful in instructing physicians, and patients themselves regarding pathological anatomy and treatment procedures.
作者通过结合三维计算机断层扫描(3D-CT)和头影测量分析开发出了三维头影测量片。
三维头影测量片能够以类似于传统头影测量片的方式直接在骨骼结构表面呈现头影测量数据。
该分析尤其揭示了下颌骨两侧复杂的面部不对称情况。图像未显示因放大导致的几何误差,也不存在传统头影测量片固有的任何重叠效应。
三维头影测量片有助于向医生及患者本人说明病理解剖结构和治疗程序。
