Book excerpt: The purpose of this retrospective study was to compare and investigate the correlation existing between the hand-wrist and the cervical vertebral radiographic assessments of maturation among a middle class population sample from European descent. Methods: The sample consisted of 100 patients (63 females and 37 males) 9-13 years of age, from a private orthodontic practice. The hand-wrist radiographs were evaluated with the Skeletal Maturation Assessment method developed by Fishman. Cervical vertebral maturation was assessed by using the method developed by Lamparski and by Hassel and Farman. The Spearman rank correlation analysis was used to correlate cervical vertebral maturation and the skeletal maturation as determined by hand-wrist radiograph. Intra-operator relativity was evaluated by the intra-class correlation. The intra-operator reliability assessment was based on 5 cases, selected at random, which were re-evaluated by the same operator two subsequent times, at a minimum of ten day intervals. Results: The Spearmen correlation between CVM and SMI for the study population was .928 and this correlation was statistically significant (P

This book was released on 2001 with total page 110 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a comprehensive and practical guide to assessing skeletal maturity and predicting adult height in children. It takes the reader through the main scoring systems and uses radiographs to illustrate the main stages of bone maturity in male and female children. The FREE CD-ROM contains a growth height prediction program, helping to predict growth height for each patient and storing data for comparison as the patient grows.
Download or read book Evaluating Skeletal Maturation written by Shally Mahajan and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2013 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Researchers have agreed that skeletal maturity is closely related to the craniofacial growth, and bones of hand wrist and cervical vertebrae are very reliable parameters in assessing it. The complete hand wrist radiograph involves 30 bones and assessment of these stages is one elaborate task which needs time and experience and also involves increased radiation exposure therefore putting a question mark on ALARA (As Low As Reasonably Achievable) principle, since this is very important mainly for children and young adults who have proliferating cells in crucial organs e.g. thyroid gland, bone marrow and salivary gland. This book is a comparative study to assess the radiographic evaluation of stages of cervical vertebrae and hand wrist radiograph to determine whether cervical vertebrae an be used as a reliable biological marker.

Download or read book An Atlas on Cephalometric Landmarks written by Basavaraj Phulari and published by JP Medical Ltd. This book was released on 2013-03-30 with total page 233 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cephalometry is an imaging technique used in orthodontics to measure the size and spatial relationships of the head, jaws and teeth, making use of landmarks or points on the skull. It is used for diagnosis, treatment planning and evaluating dentofacial changes during treatment. This book focuses on understanding the different cephalometric landmarks/points. Beginning with an introduction to the technique and classification of the landmarks, the following chapters explain each point in detail, by section of the head – cranial bones, facial bones and dentition, soft tissue, cervical bones and pharynx. The final sections discuss the different types of imaging used to trace cephalometric landmarks and their applications. Key points Presents technique of cephalometry to diagnose, and plan and evaluate treatment in orthodontics Describes every landmark by section of the head, including abbreviation, definition and applications Compares alternative radiological imaging techniques Includes more than 350 colour images and illustrations

Download or read book Hand Bone Age written by Vicente Gilsanz and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2011-10-20 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the past, determination of bone maturity relied on visual evaluation of skeletal development in the hand and wrist, most commonly using the Greulich and Pyle atlas. The Gilsanz and Ratib digital atlas takes advantage of digital imaging and provides a more effective and objective approach to assessment of skeletal maturity. The atlas integrates the key morphological features of ossification in the bones of the hand and wrist and provides idealized, sex- and age-specific images of skeletal development New to this revised second edition is a description and user manual for Bone Age for iPad®, iPhone® and iPod touch®, which can be purchased and used separately from this book. The App can be easily employed to calculate the deviation of the patient’s age from the normal range and to predict a possible growth delay. This easy-to-use atlas and the related App will be invaluable for radiologists, endocrinologists, and pediatricians and also relevant to forensic physicians.
Download or read book Twin Block Functional Therapy written by William Clark and published by JP Medical Ltd. This book was released on 2014-09-30 with total page 580 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Twin Block appliances are simple bite blocks that are designed for full-time wear. They achieve rapid functional correction of malocclusion (misalignment of upper and lower teeth) by the transmission of favourable occlusal forces to occlusal inclined planes that cover the posterior teeth. The forces of occlusion are used as the functional mechanism to correct the malocclusion (www.twinblocks.com). Beginning with an introduction to orthodontics and twin blocks, the next chapters describe growth studies and diagnosis and treatment planning. Each of the following sections discusses the use of twin blocks for different types of malocclusion. With a focus on the latest developments in functional therapy, the book offers guidance on diagnosis, treatment planning, case selection, appliance design and clinical management. Written by the internationally recognised Orthodontist William Clark from Fife, UK, who also invented Twin Blocks, this comprehensive guide includes nearly 600 clinical photographs and illustrations. Key points Comprehensive guide to use of Twin Blocks in treatment of malocclusion Focus on latest developments in functional therapy Written by UK-based inventor of Twin Blocks Includes nearly 600 images and illustrations
Download or read book Comparative Evaluation of Cervical Vertebrae with Hand Wrist Radio Graphs written by Manisha Kamal Kukreja and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2014-10-22 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is an original work done by myself to evaluate the skeletal maturation in 10-12 year old children by comparing the cervical vertebrae with hand wrist radiographs. The main purpose for this study was that for growth evaluation an additional radiographic exposure is given to adolescents by taking a hand wrist radiograph but cervical vertebrae are seen in lateral cephalograms which is an essential diagnostic aid taken in all orthodontic patients so why to go for an additional radiographic exposure if we can evaluate growth using cervical vertebrae.
