Diagnostic Agreement Between Clinical Assessment and CBCT Palatal Angle for Palatal Arch Shape
An observational study of Morphology, run by Cairo University.
Trial summary
Standardized intraoral photographs corresponding to each CBCT scan will be evaluated by two calibrated examiners. Palatal arch shape will be visually classified into one of three categories: high arched palate, normal palate, or low/shallow palate. Read more about this study

About this study
Official title: Diagnostic Agreement Between Visual Clinical Assessment and CBCT-Derived Palatal Angle Measurements for Determination of Palatal Arch Shape: Cross-Sectional Radiographic Study
Standardized intraoral photographs corresponding to each CBCT scan will be evaluated by two calibrated examiners. Palatal arch shape will be visually classified into one of three categories: high arched palate, normal palate, or low/shallow palate. Examiners will perform assessments independently and will be blinded to CBCT measurements and to each other's results.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
An observational study of Morphology, run by Cairo University.
The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?
The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: opening soon, as of the sponsor's last update on 27 Jan 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
Are results available for this study?
This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
diagnostic agreement of palatal shape (time frame: January 2026). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 27 Jan 2026.
