Objective.本研究的目的是比较颈椎成熟度评估与使用锥束计算机断层扫描（CBCT）与手腕成熟的方法和颈椎成熟度评估与使用侧头造影评估骨骼成熟度。使用手腕X线片的骨骼成熟度指标（SMI）、CBCT的颈椎成熟度指数（CVMI）和头颅侧位造影（cephalo-CVMI）评估骨骼成熟度。采用斯皮尔曼相关系数进行统计学分析。我们观察到CBCT-CVMI和头部CVMI之间以及CBCT-CVMI和SMI分期之间存在显著相关性。CBCT-CVMI与头颅CVMI、SMI的斯皮尔曼相关系数分别为0.975和0.961（P <0.0001）。CBCT颈椎成熟度评估提供了一个可靠的评估青春期生长突增，因此CBCT可用于评估骨骼成熟度。(Oral外科口腔医学口腔病理学口腔放射学2012;113：841-849）
Objective. The aim of the study was to compare cervical vertebrae maturity assessed with the use of cone-beam computerized tomography (CBCT) with the hand-wrist maturation method and cervical vertebrae maturation assessed with the use of lateral cephalography for the assessment of skeletal maturity.Study design. Assessment of skeletal maturation was done using skeletal maturity indicators (SMI) from hand-wrist radiography, cervical vertebrae maturity index (CVMI) from CBCT and lateral cephalography (cephalo-CVMI). The Spearman correlation coefficient was used for statistical analysis.Results. We observed a significant relationship between CBCT-CVMI and cephalo-CVMI as well as between CBCT-CVMI and SMI stages. The Spearman correlation coefficient value between CBCT-CVMI and cephalo-CVMI was 0.975 (P < 0001) and between CBCT-CVMI and SMI was 0.961(P < .0001).Conclusions. Cervical vertebrae maturity assessment with CBCT provided a reliable assessment of pubertal growth spurt, and therefore CBCT can be used to assess skeletal maturity.
