Abstract

Background: This prospective study aimed to evaluate the influence of the computer type (tablet or desktop) on accuracy and tracing time of cephalometric analyses.

Methods: Dental students used a web-based application specifically developed for this purpose to perform cephalometric analyses on tablet and desktop computers. Landmark locations and timestamps were exported to measure the accuracy, successful detection rate and tracing time. Reference landmarks were established by six experienced orthodontists. Statistical analysis included reliability assessment, descriptive statistics, and linear mixed effect models.

Results: Over a period of 8 semesters a total of 277 cephalometric analyses by 161 students were included. The interrater reliability of the orthodontists establishing the reference coordinates was excellent (ICC > 0.9). For the students, the mean landmark deviation was 2.05 mm and the successful detection rate for the clinically acceptable threshold of 2 mm suggested in the literature was 68.6%, with large variations among landmarks. No effect of the computer type on accuracy and tracing time of the cephalometric analyses could be found.

Conclusion: The use of tablet computers for cephalometric analyses can be recommended.

使用平板电脑或台式电脑进行头颅测量分析的准确性和追踪时间：一项前瞻性研究。

背景：这项前瞻性研究旨在评估电脑类型（平板电脑或台式电脑）对头颅测量分析的准确性和追踪时间的影响：这项前瞻性研究旨在评估电脑类型（平板电脑或台式电脑）对头颅测量分析的准确性和追踪时间的影响：方法：牙科学生使用专门为此开发的网络应用程序，在平板电脑和台式电脑上进行头颅测量分析。导出地标位置和时间戳，以测量准确性、成功检测率和追踪时间。参考地标由六位经验丰富的正畸医生确定。统计分析包括可靠性评估、描述性统计和线性混合效应模型：结果：在 8 个学期中，共有 161 名学生进行了 277 次头颅测量分析。正畸医生在确定参考坐标时的交互可靠性非常好（ICC > 0.9）。对于学生而言，平均地标偏差为 2.05 毫米，文献中建议的临床可接受阈值 2 毫米的成功检测率为 68.6%，不同地标之间的差异很大。计算机类型对头颅测量分析的准确性和追踪时间没有影响：结论：建议使用平板电脑进行头颅测量分析。

期刊介绍： Head & Face Medicine is a multidisciplinary open access journal that publishes basic and clinical research concerning all aspects of cranial, facial and oral conditions. The journal covers all aspects of cranial, facial and oral diseases and their management. It has been designed as a multidisciplinary journal for clinicians and researchers involved in the diagnostic and therapeutic aspects of diseases which affect the human head and face. The journal is wide-ranging, covering the development, aetiology, epidemiology and therapy of head and face diseases to the basic science that underlies these diseases. Management of head and face diseases includes all aspects of surgical and non-surgical treatments including psychopharmacological therapies.
