A COMPARATIVE STUDY ON THE GONIAL AMOLES IN CEPHALOMETRIC ROENTGENOGRAM AND ORTHOPANTOMOGRAM

하악각측정치에 관한 측모두부방사선사진과 Orthopantomogram과의 비교 연구

The author has studied on the gonical angles in cephalometric roentgenograph and orthopantomograph. Lateral cephalometric roentgenograms and orthopantomograms were taken from 62 patients who were consisted of 32 boys and 30 girls with dentoalveolar Class I malocclusion. Genial angles were measured on cephalograms and orthopantomograms respectively, and calculated the mean values and standard deviations and 't' test was performed on the relationship between the cephologram and orthopantomogram. Results were as followings; 1. Mean value of genial angles was $126.47^{\circ}\;{\pm}\;5.62$ in cephalgram. In orthopantomograms the gonial angle was $125.23^{\circ}\;{\pm}\;6.68$ in left side and $126.47^{\circ}\;{\pm}\;6.85$ in the right side. 2. Result of 't' test showed no significant differences on the level of 1 percent.
