Abstract

Introduction: For planned orthodontic therapy to be effective, it is important to define a treatment time based on the estimation of the child’s growth stage, skeletal maturation and therefore bone age. In a single irradiation via profile teleradiography, it is possible to obtain sufficient information to place the patient on his growth curve since the vertebral stages are good indicators of physiological maturity.

Objective: The objective was to statistically validate the vertebral computerized method (MIV) on a large sample in order to reliably and reproducibly locate the stage of vertebral maturation.

Materials and methods: Hand-wrist radiographs and profile teleradiographs of 30 patients were included to set up the MIV. To validate the MIV, panoramic and telecranial radiographs of 192 children were included in the study. Spearman correlation tests were then performed to assess correlations and Lin’s concordance coefficient calculations were used to analyze concordances.

Conclusion: The correlations and concordances obtained were statistically significant, positive and moderate. The vertebral computerized method is a method that seems reliable and usable in orthodontic practices.

计算椎体骨龄的计算机方法的统计验证

为了使计划的正畸治疗有效，重要的是要根据儿童的生长阶段、骨骼成熟和骨龄来确定治疗时间。由于椎体分期是生理成熟的良好指标，因此通过侧位放射成像单次照射可以获得足够的信息来确定患者的生长曲线。目的:目的是在大样本上对椎体计算机化方法(MIV)进行统计验证，以便可靠地、可重复地定位椎体成熟阶段。材料与方法:选取30例患者的腕部x线片和侧位x线片设置MIV。为了验证MIV，研究纳入了192名儿童的全景和远颅x线片。采用Spearman相关检验评估相关性，采用Lin’s一致性系数计算分析一致性。结论:获得的相关和一致性具有统计学意义、正相关和中度相关。椎体计算机化方法是一种在正畸实践中可靠和可用的方法。
