Abstract:Objective: The aim of the present study is to identify a more reliable reference point in three-dimensional cephalometric analysis to replace the Porion point used in two-dimensional analysis, enhancing the accuracy of assessments. Methods: The methodology assessed potential alternative landmarks for three-dimensional cephalometric analysis. Utilizing a segmenting technique, anatomical landmarks were accurately pinpointed from the external acoustic meatus of 26 Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) scans. These… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
