Purpose: The aim of this study was to evaluate the difference between Ricketts analysis measurements made on Sirona Orthophos XG Plus (Sirona Dental Systems, Charlotte,NC) lateral cephalograms, and DolphinTM generated perspective and orthogonal lateral cephalograms from CBCT (NewTom 5G; QR srl, Verona, Italy). Materials and Methods: A Sirona digital lateral cephalogram and DophinTM synthesized CBCT lateral cephalograms of a radiographic phantom in orthogonal and perspective projections were created. Horizontal and vertical measurements were made in multiple planes on the radiographic phantom to compare each imaging modality. Twenty-five lateral cephalometric radiographs were selected retrospectively from the records of patients of …
