Background: Craniosynostosis is a condition caused by the premature fusion of skull
sutures, leading to irregular growth patterns of the head. Three-dimensional …

Sagittal synostosis is a condition caused by the fused sagittal suture and results in a
narrowed skull in infants. Spring-assisted cranioplasty is a correction technique used to …

Featured Application Patient-specific, 3D CAD model of the mandible and of the proximal
femur can be obtained from a limited set of measurements; these models can be used for …

Introduction Craniosynostoses affect 1/2000 births and their incidence is currently
increasing. Without surgery, craniosynostosis can lead to neurological issues due to …

With increasing interest in 3D photogrammetry, diverse methods have been developed for
craniofacial shape analysis in craniosynostosis patients. This review provides an overview …

Background and objectives The most widespread statistical modeling technique is based on
Principal Component Analysis (PCA). Although this approach has several appealing …

This study aimed to provide an external validation of morphometric outcomes, including
recently developed parameters—vertico-longitudinal index (VLI) and vertex-nasion …

This study performed three-dimensional (3D) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-based
statistical shape analysis (SSA) by comparing patellofemoral instability (PFI) and normal …

Abstract 3D ultrasound imaging of fetal faces has been predominantly confined to qualitative
assessment. Many genetic conditions evade diagnosis and identification could assist with …

Introduction Photogrammetric surface scans provide a radiation-free option to assess and
classify craniosynostosis. Due to the low prevalence of craniosynostosis and high patient …
