Abstract
Three-dimensional surface images from CT scans have been used to study the pre- and postoperative anatomy of patients with craniosynostosis: the sutural pattern per se, the morphology of the calvaria, the morphology of the endo- and exocranial bases, the morphology of the orbits and the position of the globes, and the morphology of the mandible. This technology assists diagnosis, treatment planning, and longitudinal follow-up.
