Diagnosis simplified-the angular cephalometric analyzing protractor

The process of cephalometric analysis requires the use of either digital software or manual tracing techniques. Although many clinicians today utilize this software, a large number of orthodontists continue to use manual tracing techniques due to the increased cost and the lack of understanding in using digital software efficiently. Manual cephalometric tracing can be discouraging as it is time-consuming, cumbersome and in certain instances may require additional personnel. The angular cephalometric analyzing protractor is a device that can be used chairside on a digital cephalogram without having to trace outlines or draw cephalometric planes and angles and also does not require an acetate tracing sheet
