Value of Maxillary Sinus Morphology in Identification of Gender by Using Digital Radiography

Background: Human being recognition is significant for a variety of purposes, including the humanitarian and sentimental needs others, relatives as well court before rendering decision. In forensic radiology, radiographic tests procedures that are relevant to law or courts performed, interpreted, then reported. Comparing radiography three-dimensional (3D) cone beam computed tomography, has benefits more widely available, having lower radiation dose, cast. The systemic change in size shape between individuals varying sexes belonging same species known sexual dimorphism. Sexual dimorphism reflected by different species' maxillary sinuses. first paranasal sinus develop utero at age 10 weeks sinuses, which two air-filled cavities found bone. They largest Bones like pelvis, skull, femur used radiology identify gender. Maxillary sinuses can be utilized identification mass tragedies aero plane accidents, war, explosions, burnt, decomposing remains, other calamities. these situations, all bones suffer severe damage, but left undamaged. Aim objective: This research digital gender based on morphology sinus. Materials Methods: From radiographs (A.P view) 128 subjects ( 64 males females), morphometric characteristics were assessed using microdicom software. Results: right average height width was 28.15mm 25.04mm whereas, females it 22.39mm 22.54mm respectively statistically highly significant. Likewise, 28.91mm 25.33mm 20.81mm Conclusion: It concluded from my study anteroposterior (AP) view detect Keywords: Forensic radiography, sinus, dimorphism, determination disaster.
