چکیده

introduction: raising the knowledge of skeletal and soft tissue changes with aging has been highly essential due to an increasing demand for aesthetic facial surgery following aging. the aim of this study is to evaluate the three dimensional computed tomographic images and process of changes in mandible with aging. materials and methods: in this descriptive study, the facial ct scans were obtained from 124 subjects (70 men and 54 women). the population of the study was categorized in three ages (21 to 30, 31 to 40, 41 to 50). each ct image was reinforced under volume rendering three-dimensional reconstruction by using the three dimensional analysis software volume viewer. the specific parts of mandible consisting of bigonial width, mandibular body height, ramus breadth, ramus height, mandibular body length and mandibular angle were measured and the data were analyzed employing two-ways analysis of variance. results: in both genders, there was no significant changes in bigonial width with aging (p=0.88). mandibular body height for both genders decreased with aging but the result was not statistically significant (p=0.19). ramus breadth decreased with aging in both genders (p=0.02).considering the obtained means, ramus height and mandibular body length did not show significant changes in different age categories (p=0.09) (p=0.54). in both genders mandibular angle increased with aging (p=0.17). conclusion: mandibular angle in women is greater than men and also for ramus breadth. there is no significant difference between men and women.

Morphology of the Aging Forehead: A Three-Dimensional Computed Tomographic Study

BACKGROUND Age-related changes have been studied for lower and middle facial bones. Although the forehead comprises one-third of the facial area, no studies have investigated age-related changes in the upper part of the face or forehead. The purpose of this study was to use three-dimensional computed tomography (3D CT) to investigate age-related changes in the frontal bone. METHODS A retrospe...

Aging of the bony orbit: a three-dimensional computed tomographic study.

BACKGROUND Facial aging is a dynamic process involving the aging of soft tissue and bony structures. The shape, size, and volume of the bony orbit have all been shown to change with increasing age. OBJECTIVE In this study, we demonstrate how specific bony aspects of the orbit change with age in both male and female subjects and what impact this may have on the techniques used in facial cosmet...

Optical Computed-Tomographic Microscope for Three-Dimensional Quantitative Histology

A novel optical computed-tomographic microscope has been developed allowing quantitative three-dimensional (3D) imaging and analysis of fixed pathological material. Rather than a conventional two-dimensional (2D) image, the instrument produces a 3D representation of fixed absorption-stained material, from which quantitative histopathological features can be measured more accurately. The accurat...
