Abstract

Aim: To assess the validity and reliability of cephalometric measurements performed by CephNinja, OneCeph and EasyCeph applications with lateral cephalometric radiographs based on measurement obtained from veiwbox computer software. Subjects & methods: 50 patients’ pre-treatment lateral cephalograms using the same digital cephalometer were collected. Patients were traced twice using three mobile apps (i.e., CephNinja and OneCeph, Easyceph), with Viewbox used as the reference standard computer software program. 11 angular and 2 linear measurements originating from the Downs analysis, Ricketts analysis and Wits appraisal. Results: There were no statistically significant differences were found between the mobile application and computer software which states a strong validity and agreement between the two readings. Conclusion: Smartphone cephalometric analysis applications perform satisfactorily in terms of validity and reliability. OneCeph is highly valid when compared with Viewbox as a control group than other two mobile apps, while both mobile apps Oneceph and CephNinja are more reliable than Easyceph.

针对正畸学中不同头颅测量分析的最新智能手机应用评估（比较研究）

目的：评估 CephNinja、OneCeph 和 EasyCeph 应用程序根据 veiwbox 计算机软件获得的测量结果对侧头骨X光片进行测量的有效性和可靠性。研究对象和方法：使用同一台数字头颅测量仪收集了 50 名患者治疗前的头颅侧位片。使用三个移动应用程序（即 CephNinja 和 OneCeph，Easyceph）对患者进行两次追踪，并将 Viewbox 作为参考标准计算机软件程序。11 次角度测量和 2 次线性测量分别来自唐斯分析、里克特分析和维茨鉴定。结果：移动应用程序和计算机软件之间没有发现明显的统计学差异，这说明两种读数之间具有很高的有效性和一致性。结论智能手机头颅测量分析应用程序在有效性和可靠性方面的表现令人满意。与作为对照组的 Viewbox 相比，OneCeph 的有效性高于其他两个手机应用软件，而 Oneceph 和 CephNinja 这两个手机应用软件的可靠性则高于 Easyceph。
