The digital image on DICOM format request a large store size capability, making difficult the transmission through internet, usually requesting the image compression via JPEG file format. The aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of DICOM and JPEG file formats on Quality Factors 100, 80 and 60, in the reproducibility intra and interexaminer at cephalometrics landmarks identification at digital Frontal Teleradiographies. The sample consists of 120 digital images of Frontal Teleradiographies, obtained from 30 individuals. The 30 original images in DICOM format was converted into a JPEG format on Quality Factors 100, 80 and 60. After blind and random the sample, three calibrated orthodontist marked 18 cephalometric points on each image using a computerized cephalometric program which has in account cephametric points values in a X and Y cartesians coordinates system. At the results, the statistical tests at intraclasses correlations and variant analysis (ANOVA) presents a reproducibility agreement of the cephalometric points on digital Frontal Teleradiographies on intra such as interexaminer, except for points ZL, ZR, AZ, JR, NC, CN on coordinate Y and A6 on coordinate X, independently of file formats. As a conclusion, the file formats DICOM and JPEG on Quality Factors 100, 80 and 60 do not affected the reproducibility intra and interexaminers on a cephalometric landmarks identification.(AU)
