Verifying Three-Dimensional Skull Model Reconstruction Using Cranial Index of Symmetry

BACKGROUND Difficulty exists in scalp adaptation for cranioplasty with customized computer-assisted design/manufacturing (CAD/CAM) implant in situations of excessive wound tension and sub-cranioplasty dead space. To solve this clinical problem, the CAD/CAM technique should include algorithms to reconstruct a depressed contour to cover the skull defect. Satisfactory CAM-derived alloplastic impla...

Skull Reconstruction with Custom Made Three-Dimensional Titanium Implant

BACKGROUND Source material used to fill calvarial defects includes autologous bones and synthetic alternatives. While autologous bone is preferable to synthetic material, autologous reconstruction is not always feasible due to defect size, unacceptable donor-site morbidity, and other issues. Today, advanced three-dimensional (3D) printing techniques allow for fabrication of titanium implants cu...

Three-dimensional alloplastic orbital reconstruction in skull base surgery.

INTRODUCTION The orbit may be directly involved by neoplasms or other destructive processes arising from the orbital contents, the osseous framework or, indirectly, as extensions of extraorbital tumors from the sinuses or cranial vault. In most osseous neoplasms of the orbit, and in tumors with extension into the orbit from surrounding areas, resection of part or all of the orbital walls will b...

Photographic Atlas and Three-Dimensional Reconstruction of the Holotype Skull of Euhelopus zdanskyi with Description of Additional Cranial Elements

BACKGROUND Euhelopus zdanskyi is one of relatively few sauropod taxa known from an almost complete skull and mandible. Recent phylogenetic analyses suggest that Euhelopus is a somphospondylan titanosauriform, and that it is a member of the clade (Euhelopodidae) which is the sister taxon to the hugely successful, dominantly Cretaceous sauropod group Titanosauria. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS...

Integrated three-dimensional reconstruction using reflectance fields

A method to obtain three-dimensional data of real-world objects by integrating their material properties is presented. The material properties are defined by capturing the Reflectance Fields of the real-world objects. It is shown, unlike conventional reconstruction methods, the method is able to use the reflectance information to recover surface depth for objects having a nonLambertian surface ...
