Video imaging: techniques for superimposition of cephalometric radiography and profile images
1Department of Orthodontics, University of Alabama at Birmingham 35294.
Abstract:
Computerized video imaging techniques that enable superimposition of cephalometric radiographs and tracings on the image of the soft tissue profile are presented. This superimposition allows visualization of the underlying skeletal and dental hard tissues as they relate to the profile and permits surgical planners to be more cognizant of the limitations that the teeth and occlusion present as the esthetic treatment goals are defined. Step-by-step treatment planning of a patient is used to demonstrate the techniques.
