Cephalometric analysis is the evaluation of lateral skull radiographs obtained with cephalostats. This analysis is indicated to help determine the skeletal pattern and assess treatment difficulty when anteroposterior movement is planned. This activity reviews the basic principles of cephalometric analysis, including identifying points, lines, and angles. The activity also summarizes the technique for obtaining a standardized lateral cephalometric radiograph, the tenets of cephalometric tracing, and describes how to interpret the results of a cephalometric analysis within the clinical context.
