OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to compare cephalometric measurements obtained from conventional cephalograms with total and half-skull synthesized cone beam CT (CBCT) cephalograms. METHODS: Cephalometric analyses of 30 clinically symmetric patients were conducted by a calibrated examiner on conventional and CBCT-synthesized cephalograms (total, right and left). Reproducibility was investigated using the intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC). The Bland-Altman analysis was used to assess the agreement of the measurements from each factor obtained by conventional, total, right and left CBCT-synthesized cephalograms. RESULTS: The ICC was above 0.9 for most of the 40 cephalometric factors analysed, revealing similar levels of reproducibility. When the measurements obtained from conventional and CBCT-synthesized cephalograms were compared, the Bland-Altman analysis showed a strong agreement between them. CONCLUSIONS: Half-skull CBCT-synthesized cephalograms offer the same diagnostic performance and equivalent reproducibility in terms of cephalometric analysis as observed in conventional and total CBCT-synthesized cephalograms. |
