Objective: The objective of this research was to determine the sensitivity, specificity and diagnostic accuracy of the UPenn and Yonsei methods, evaluated in Cone Beam computed tomography, Lima 2023. Materials and methods: 95 tomography scans were used, which were standardized to perform the respective measurements of both jaws: upper and lower. The discrepancy of these was then determined by performing the tomographic analyses of UPenn and Yonsei.
Results: Sensitivity shows the proportion of patients with cross-sectional discrepancy who were correctly detected by the Yonsei method, in the present study it was 59.46%, while specificity evidenced the proportion of patients without discrepancy, which were detected by the Yonsei method, constituting 66.67% of the sample. Finally, Yonsei's method presented a diagnostic accuracy of 61.05%.
Conclusions: The UPenn method has greater diagnostic sensitivity, while the Yonsei method has more diagnostic specificity in the evaluation of cross-sectional discrepancies.
