Résumé
This study aimed to evaluate the feasibility of a new biplanar low-dose X-ray device for facial skeletal imaging. We evaluated 48 biplanar radiographs from 12 patients (posteroanterior/lateral), originally taken for a scoliosis examination with a biplanar low-dose X-ray device. For this study, the images were further evaluated for the perceptibility of 38 facial skeleton landmarks. To determine the reliability and reproducibility of perceptibility, two independent observers determined the landmarks twice, during a time interval of at least two weeks. Both interoperator and intraoperator reliability were excellent for all landmarks [intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) > 0.92]. The biplanar low-dose X-ray device demonstrated good feasibility for precisely assessing the anatomical landmarks of the facial skeleton. Given its excellent precision, the biplanar low-dose X-ray device data sets should be forwarded from the treating orthopedic surgeon or neurosurgeon to the orthodontist or dentist for further assessment in their field.

BACKGROUND
This study aimed to evaluate the feasibility of a new biplanar low-dose X-ray device for facial skeletal imaging.
METHODS
We evaluated 48 biplanar radiographs from 12 patients (posteroanterior/lateral), originally taken for a scoliosis examination with a biplanar low-dose X-ray device. For this study, the images were further evaluated for the perceptibility of 38 facial skeleton landmarks. To determine the reliability and reproducibility of perceptibility, two independent observers determined the landmarks twice, during a time interval of at least two weeks.
RESULTS
Both interoperator and intraoperator reliability were excellent for all landmarks [intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) > 0.92].
CONCLUSIONS
The biplanar low-dose X-ray device demonstrated good feasibility for precisely assessing the anatomical landmarks of the facial skeleton. Given its excellent precision, the biplanar low-dose X-ray device data sets should be forwarded from the treating orthopedic surgeon or neurosurgeon to the orthodontist or dentist for further assessment in their field.

e0235032Déclaration de conflit d'intérêts
I have read the journal's policy and the authors of this manuscript have the following competing interests: Prof. P. Rouch and Dr. A. Laville have to declare a conflict of interest with the EOS-Imaging company, as the laboratory has received EOS-Imaging funding associated to anterior studies. All other authors have no conflicts of interest to daclare. Herewith, we confirm that this does not alter our adherence to PLOS ONE policies on sharing data and materials.
