What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed This study
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This study tested whether an AI program (WeDoCeph) can analyze dental X-rays as accurately as the traditional manual tracing method. Researchers compared 15 measurements on 40 X-rays, done both by hand and by AI, at two different times. The goal was to see if AI is reliable enough to help orthodontists plan treatments more quickly and consistently.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
AI software (WeDoCeph) for cephalometric analysis
What this could lead to
If successful, this could lead to faster, more consistent dental X-ray analysis, reducing time and variability in orthodontic treatment planning.
What could go wrong
This is a small, completed study with only 40 X-rays. The AI may not work as well on lower-quality images or in patients with complex dental conditions.

Who can take part

This study's own entry requirements. Only the study team can say for certain whether you qualify.

Who is studied

The study population consisted of radiographs from orthodontic patients at various stages of treatment, including both pretreatment (initial diagnostic) and post-treatment radiographs. All radiographs were high-quality digital or digitized lateral cephalograms suitable for landmark identification and measurement. Patients with surgical rigid fixations, orthodontic appliances visible on radiographs, or dental prostheses were excluded to ensure clear visualization of anatomical landmarks. Additionally, radiographs of very poor quality or from patients with diagnosed syndromes or craniofacial deformities were excluded to maintain consistency in anatomical structure assessment. The unit of analysis is the cephalometric radiograph rather than individual patients, as each radiograph represents a single diagnostic assessment.

Ages
