OBJECTIVE: The determination of the mid-sagittal plane (MSP) on three-dimensional (3D) head imaging is key to the assessment of facial asymmetry. The aim of this study was to evaluate the reliability of an automated landmark-based MSP to quantify man...
OBJECTIVE: Condylar remodeling is a key prognostic indicator in maxillofacial surgery for skeletal class II patients. This study aimed to develop and validate a fully automated method leveraging landmark-guided segmentation and registration for effic...
BACKGROUND: Digital cephalometric analyses, including those assisted by artificial intelligence (AI), are widely used in clinical practice. Similarly, computer-assisted learning has demonstrated teaching outcomes comparable to those of traditional me...
BACKGROUND: Manual landmark detection in cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) for evaluating craniofacial structures relies on medical expertise and is time-consuming. This study aimed to apply a new deep learning method to predict and locate soft an...
OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to enhance clinical diagnostics for quantitative cervical vertebral maturation (QCVM) staging with precise landmark localization. Existing methods are often subjective and time-consuming, while deep learning alternatives ...
