Evaluation of Reliability of Quadraceph Software for Cephalometric Analysis
Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Dental and Medical Sciences (IOSR-JDMS) - Year 2018, Vol 17, Issue 7
Abstract
Aim: To evaluate the reliability of Quadraceph Software for cephalometric analysis Materials and methods: The study was conducted on pre-treatment cephalometric radiographs of 25 patients. The digital tracing was done using Quadraceph Imaging Software. A total of 26 landmarks were defined on each Cephalogram. Out of 25 radiographs 15 were retraced manually and digitally for investigating the reliability (intraexaminer error) and the reproducibility for the manual and digital method. Conclusion: Greater variability in repeated cephalometric measurements was found in tracings done with Quadraceph Software compared with manually traced images. The differences, however, were statistically insignificant.
