Craniofacial Growth in Patients with Craniosynostosis

Craniofacial Growth in Patients with Craniosynostosis With the growing appreciation that traditional cephalographic analyses provide data of dubious scientific validity, this study was undertaken to investigate craniofacial growth using the technique of biorthogonal analysis. This specific technique for the analysis of shape change showed relatively minor contrasts between control and craniosynostotic patients between 6 and 10 years of age. By contrast, marked variation was noted within component regions of the craniofacial skeletons in both patient samples: a feature not evident from traditional cephalographic analyses. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Cells Tissues Organs Karger

Abstract

With the growing appreciation that traditional cephalographic analyses provide data of dubious scientific validity, this study was undertaken to investigate craniofacial growth using the technique of biorthogonal analysis. This specific technique for the analysis of shape change showed relatively minor contrasts between control and craniosynostotic patients between 6 and 10 years of age. By contrast, marked variation was noted within component regions of the craniofacial skeletons in both patient samples: a feature not evident from traditional cephalographic analyses.
