This study develops a novel automated method for measuring continuous dynamics of dog facial behavior based on video-based tracking of 46 facial landmarks grounded in the Dog Facial Action Coding System. This method is applied for comparing the facia...
Early and precise diagnosis of craniosynostosis (CSO), which involves premature fusion of cranial sutures in infants, is crucial for effective treatment. Although computed topography offers detailed imaging, its high radiation poses risks, especially...
Brachycephalic obstructive airway syndrome (BOAS) is a highly prevalent respiratory disease affecting popular short-faced dog breeds such as Pugs and French bulldogs. BOAS causes significant morbidity, leading to poor exercise tolerance, sleep disord...
BACKGROUND: Craniosynostosis, a congenital condition characterized by the premature fusion of cranial sutures, necessitates objective methods for evaluating cranial morphology to enhance patient treatment. Current subjective assessments often lead to...

Apert (AS), Crouzon (CS), Muenke (MS), Pfeiffer (PS), and Saethre Chotzen (SCS) are among the most frequently diagnosed syndromic craniosynostoses. The aims of this study were (1) to train an innovative model using artificial intelligence (AI)-based ...
BACKGROUND: Frontoorbital distraction osteogenesis (FODO) is an established surgical technique for patients with unicoronal craniosynostosis. The authors' institution has used an endoscope-assisted technique (endo-FODO) in recent years to decrease cu...
BACKGROUND: Craniofacial computed tomography (CT) is the diagnostic investigation of choice for craniosynostosis, but high radiation dose remains a concern.
OBJECTIVE: Quantitative measurements of trigonocephaly can be used to characterize and track this phenotype, which is associated with metopic craniosynostosis. Traditionally, trigonocephaly metrics were extracted from CT scans; however, this method e...
