The three-dimensional cephalogram: Theory, techniques, and clinical application [PDF]
The Broadbent-Bolton cephalostat produces intrinsically three-dimensional information about cranial form. Yet in the clinical setting, this information has been used primarily two dimensions at a time in the separate study of lateral or posteroanterior cephalograms. In this article we demonstrate an expedient use of existing cephalostat-based data sets

IDENTIFICATION OF A LANDMARK IN A ROENTGENOGRAPHIC CEPHALOGRAM BY EMPLOYING THE WAVELET NEURONS [PDF]
This paper describes an identification method of a landmark in a roentgenographic cephalogram by employing the input-correlated wavelet neurons. For the purpose of improvement of identification precision, a novel pattern matching method, named "wavelet neuron matching (WNM)," is proposed in this paper.

The effect of changes in tooth position of unerupted canines on cephalograms [PDF]
Although many radiographic procedures have been described to localize an impacted canine, they all submit the patient to extra radiation. The purpose of the entire study was to evaluate if the combined interpretation of cephalograms and dental panoramic tomograms (DPTs), which are used in orthodontic practice, can provide adequate information as to the
