Radiographic measurements included the lowest cribriform plate and planum sphenoidale (PS) heights, or posterior skull base when not yet pneumatized, as well as the highest maxillary roof height. The nasal floor was used for reference. Statistics were performed via Shapiro-Wilks test with a P-value of .05 indicating statistical significance.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Three hundred and seven unique scans were reviewed (38.9% female; n\u2009=\u2009122; P\u2009=\u2009.58). Age stratification was based on previously described sinus growth patterns. In all patients, the maximum maxillary height was inferior to the lowest measured cribriform lamella and PS ( P\u2009&lt;\u2009.001; CI, 98.5%-99%). Inter- and intrarater reliability and accuracy were verified through blinded review and re-review (\u03c1\u2009=\u2009.99 and .98 respectively, P\u2009\u2264\u2009.001). The validity of sole coronal measurements due to incomplete sagittal reformatting was also confirmed (\u03c1\u2009=\u20091.00, P\u2009\u2264\u2009.001).<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n
