Variable analysis
- Range of Hounsfield unit (HU) representing the bony tissues on the DICOM images
- Lower threshold value between 250–350 HU
- Geometric alignment of the two DICOM images and the constructed 3D models
- Mutual information between the two DICOM images
- DICOM image registration area
- Initial rough alignment of the 3D models
- Operator performing the 3D model construction and superimposition procedure
- Time interval between repeated procedures (3 weeks)
- Positive control: Registration of the scans on the anterior cranial base and left zygomatic arch by the same operator (RN)
- Negative control: Registration of the scans on the anterior cranial base by a second observer (HB) to test inter-observer reliability

About PubCompare
Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.
We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.
However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
