Study type

Observational

Primary location

Faculty of Dentistry- Cairo university

Cairo, 12311, Egypt

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: Yes

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

CBCT Radiographs should have the following criteria :

  • Female patients, age range from 10-25 years .
  • Patients free of any serious illness.
  • Patients with no cleft lip or palate.
  • Patients with no previous trauma or injury in the head and neck region.

Exclusion criteria

Patients suffering from congenital or acquired malformations affecting cervical vertebrae.

Treatment and study plan

CBCT

Radiation

CBCT Radiographs of Egyptian Female patients will be selected from the patients' database at the Faculty of Dentistry, Cairo University.

The CBCT Radiographs data will be reconstructed using 3D imaging software (3D Slicer ).

The body of the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th vertebra will be cropped and other structures will be deleted.

Each vertebra will be isolated using split mask tool, then 3D format of each vertebra will be obtained, and its 3D volume in mm³ will be recorded using 3D object properties.

then evaluate the association between cervical vertebrae volume and maturation stages assessed using the CVM I

Primary outcomes

  1. clinical correlation between cervical vertebrae volume and patient's maturational stage

    Time frame: Data is collected on Day 1 No follow up is needed because it is an observational

    the data (volume of cervical vertebrae C2, C3 and C4) is collected from the CBCT of the patient on the day of arrival of the radiograph
