Response - NO
Brief Summary
Modification(s)  
Morphometric measurements of the pharyngeal airway are of great importance for clinicians and radiologists during diagnosis and treatment of cleft lip and palate. The combined analysis of these factors can provide valuable insights for accurate orthodontic treatment planning and rehabilitation of these patients. The research may have important applications as a proper diagnosis must underpin the treatment at every level for it to be effective. Unquestionably, 3D imaging diagnosis is necessary for accurate evaluation and diagnosis of CLP patients. In order to reduce the quantity of CBCT exposures and radiation doses given to children, the scheduling of the test is crucial.
