3D superimposition of craniofacial imaging—The utility of multicentre collaborations

Distortion in Craniofacial Superimposition : Logarithmic Decay Curves

Multimodal Genetic Algorithms for Craniofacial Superimposition

Photographic supra-projection (Iscan, 1993) is a forensic process that consists of comparing photographs or video shots of a missing person with the skull that is found. By projecting both photographs on top of each other (or, even better, matching a scanned three-dimensional skull model against the face photo/video shot), the forensic anthropologist can try to establish whether that is the sam...

Computer-based craniofacial superimposition in forensic identification using soft computing

One of the most important tasks in forensic anthropology is human identification. Over the past decades, forensic anthropologists have focused on improving techniques to increase the accuracy of identification. Following a thorough examination of unidentified human remains, the investigator chooses a specific identification technique to be applied, depending on the availability of ante mortem a...

Determining the Validity of Furue's Method of Craniofacial Superimposition for Identification

Craniofacial superimposition methods are employed for the identification of unknown skulls or living persons. There are many such methods and of particular interest is that technique developed by Furue which is inexpensive to set-up. A study was undertaken to ascertain the validity of this technique and to correlate our findings with other researchers.

Superimposition of 3D cone-beam CT models in orthognathic surgery.

INTRODUCTION: Limitations of 2D quantitative and qualitative evaluation of surgical displacements can be overcome by CBCT and three-dimensional imaging tools. OBJECTIVES: The method described in this study allows the assessment of changes in the condyles, rami, chin, maxilla and dentition by the comparison of CBCT scans before and after orthognathic surgery. METHODS: 3D models are built and s...
