Diagnostic Report

 

From the report window, click the diagnosis menu or the equivalent button (last one from the right) and LC will integrate the overall values available and will generate as accurate as possible a diagnosis based on the values measured.

 
 
 

 

The reliability of the diagnostic report has been tested with over 100 tracings belonging to previously treated patients and it was found to be extremely precise.


 
 
 
 

Important recommendation:  LC generates the diagnostic report based on the assumption that the patient’s proportions are not over different from the average person, meaning that for dwarfism or gigantism patients,  the reports will not be 100% accurate.  
 
 
 
 

You won't need to be reminded that the final evaluation should be carried out by the patient’s doctor, in light of the information he has available (in addition to the cephalometric data), and from which he will be able to identify the clinical significance or otherwise of the values found to be outwith the average ranges.

>Second Class

    Simple

    Hypo-mandible

    Hypo-maxilla

    Composite

>Third Class

    Simple

    Hyper-mandible

    Hypo-maxilla

    Composite

>Borderline Forms
