Comparison of Antegonial Index Measurements in Males and Females Using Panoramic Radiography With the SmarTimu
Keywords:
smarTimu, IndIndeks Antegonial, Radiografi Panoramik, OsteoporosisAbstract
Introduction: Bones are the primary structural components of the human body that
have the ability to grow and develop. Loss of bone mass increases the risk of bone
health disorders such as osteopenia and osteoporosis. One method for diagnosing
osteoporosis is through panoramic radiography using radiometric measurements such
as the Antegonial Index (AI). The measurement of the Antegonial Index can be
conducted using the SmarTimu application. Objective: This study aimed to compare
the Antegonial Index values between males and females. Methods: This research
employed a cross-sectional design with purposive sampling, using panoramic
radiographs from RSIGMP Universitas Muslim Indonesia that meet the inclusion
criteria. Results: The right-side Antegonial Index in males was found to be 2.973,
while the left-side index was 2.964. In females, the right-side Antegonial Index was
3.300, and the left-side index was 3.264. Conclusion: There is no significant difference
in the Antegonial Index values between males and females based on panoramic
radiography.
