Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis (IUPUI) / The purpose of this study was to determine whether angular and linear measurements from tracings of a Panorex radiograph provide a valid comparison to bony relationships identified on the lateral cephalometric headplate of the same individual. A pilot study was performed on a dried skull to identify selected skeletal landmarks on Panorex radiographs. Using these landmarks, fifteen measurements of bony relationships of the head were completed on each radiograph. Values obtained on a lateral headplate were compared with measurements on the same patient's Panorex radiograph for a group of forty-eight children. The data were recorded on standard IBM punch cards and submitted for statistical analysis to the Research Computation Center of Indiana University-Purdue University at Indianapolis. The data support the conclusion that angular and linear measurements from a tracing of a Panorex radiograph cannot be compared directly or in a proportional manner to similar measurements from a tracing of a lateral headplate of the same individual. Although there was significant correlation of comparative measurements for the sample group as a whole, there was wide variation from individual to individual.

Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis (IUPUI) / Sixteen adult human skulls with "normal occlusion" were examined with the Panorex to determine its ability to record the mesio-distal axial inclinations and the mesio-distal diameters of the posterior teeth. This study indicates that the Panorex can be used as a qualitative and quantitative instrument in the study of the mesio-distal axial inclinations of the posterior teeth. A series of means and standard deviations for each posterior tooth as interpreted by the Panorex was developed. Individual measurements of posterior teeth as seen on the Panorex can now be related and compared to these standards so that they are valuable in the diagnosis, treatment, and evaluation of orthodontic cases. Further research is necessary, however, to accurately interpret the mesio-distal diameters of the posterior teeth as seen on the Panorex if these measurements are to be used for arch length analysis.

Goldman School of Graduate Dentistry, 1988 (Endodontics) / Bibliography : leaves 69-75. / Stereoradiographs have been available to dentists since the early 1900s; however, they have never gained widespread acceptance or usage. The complexity of the procedures necessary for taking stereoradiographs has been a deterrent to acceptance of the technique. For this reason a free hand method of taking stereoradiographs has been devised,　during which two exposures of dental radiographs are made, mounted for viewing,　and viewed in the stereoscope. Three evaluators reviewed the stereoradiograph slides and judged them for three-dimensional effect. They found that over 97% of the slides exhibited a three-dimensional result. This free hand stereoradiograph technique may lend itself to generalized acceptance by dentists.
