Official title
Radiographic Assessment of the Correlation Between Maxillary Sinus Dimensions and Greater Palatine Canal Pathway in CBCT Images (A Retrospective Study).
Overview
The CBCT-based radiographic evaluation will be used to identify, classify, and measure the anatomical parameters of the GPC and maxillary sinus. These data will serve as a pre-surgical diagnostic guide for clinicians when performing procedures involving the posterior maxilla.
Primary outcome measures
- To measure the height of the maxillary sinus in CBCT-reformatted panoramic views. [Time frame: January 2026]
Eligibility criteria
Inclusion criteria
- Age between 18 and 50 years.
- Fully visible maxillary sinuses and complete GPC pathway in high-quality CBCT images.
- Scans free of motion or metallic artifacts.
Exclusion criteria
- History of maxillofacial trauma, orthognathic surgery, or pathology affecting the posterior maxilla.
- Craniofacial anomalies or syndromes.
- Poor-quality or incomplete scans.
Criteria are shown verbatim from the registry (in English). Final eligibility is always assessed by the study center.
