چکیده
resist decomposition for a long period. The foramen magnum, which is located at the cranial base, also good parameter identifications with reasonable accuracy. surface area of magnum can be calculated using 3D reconstructed computer tomography head to assess morphological differences in males and females, useful forensic sciences.Objectives: To measure antero-posterior length transverse diameter females compare male female find difference.Method: CT scan was performed 40 patients (20+20) two groups consist female, SIEMENCE SOMATOM 16 SLICE machine, referred Acharya Vinoba Bhave Rural Hospital skull. Scan will include vertex C3, received images then into images. From measured; anterior-posterior, includes female. Teixeria’s Radinsky’s formulae used. Descriptive analysis magnum. Independent sample T test determine any significant difference between Discriminant analysis.Result: 70% original group cases were correctly classified derived dataConclusion: used science as gender determination tool case where other identifying methods are inconclusive modern imaging technology very useful.

Morphometric analysis of the foramen magnum using cone beam computed tomography
Background/aim: The aim of this study was to perform morphometric analysis of the foramen magnum (FM) using cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT). Materials and methods: This study included CBCT images of 190 individuals (88 males and 102 females). The sagittal and transverse diameters and circumference of the FM were measured. The shape of FM was classified as round, hexagonal, oval, egg-shaped...

The authors report two cases of cervicomedullary decompression of foramen magnum (FM) stenosis in children with achondroplasia using intraoperative computed tomography (iCT). A 14-month-old girl with myelopathy and retarded motor development, and a 10-year-old girl who had already undergone incomplete FM decompression was presented with myelopathy. Both patients underwent decompressive sub-occi...
متن کاملPredicting Unilateral Postlaminectomy C5 Palsy by Measuring C5 Exit Foramen Area on Preoperative Computed Tomography
Background. Postoperative C5 motor palsy is known as a common complication not only after cervical laminectomy but also after anterior discectomy. There is no consensus to verify any of the proposed mechanisms of C5 palsy following posterior cervical decompression. The authors of this article have found that C5 palsy is more common among patients with smaller C5 root exit foramen area. The purp...
متن کاملAssessment of Accessory Mental Foramen by Cone-Beam Computed Tomography
Introduction: Any foramen in the buccal surface of mandibular body that transfers mental nerve and vessels except mental foramen, is called Accessory Mental Foramen (AMF). The objective of this study was the determination of the AMF using cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT). Materials and Methods: this descriptive study was done on 180 CBCT projections which were selected by convenience samp...
