Application and Accuracy of Craniomaxillofacial Plastic Surgery Robot in Congenital Craniosynostosis Surgery.

The Journal of craniofacial surgery
OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study was to observe the accuracy and security of the craniomaxillofacial plastic surgery robot in congenital craniosynostosis surgery and to enhance and improve its performance.

Quantifying the Severity of Metopic Craniosynostosis Using Unsupervised Machine Learning.

Plastic and reconstructive surgery
BACKGROUND: Quantifying the severity of head shape deformity and establishing a threshold for operative intervention remains challenging in patients with metopic craniosynostosis (MCS). This study combines three-dimensional skull shape analysis with ...

Application of Deep Learning Techniques for Automated Diagnosis of Non-Syndromic Craniosynostosis Using Skull.

The Journal of craniofacial surgery
Non-syndromic craniosynostosis (NSCS) is a disease, in which a single cranial bone suture is prematurely fused. The early intervention of the disease is associated with a favorable outcome at a later age, so appropriate screening of NSCS is essential...

Convolutional mesh autoencoders for the 3-dimensional identification of FGFR-related craniosynostosis.

Scientific reports
Clinical diagnosis of craniofacial anomalies requires expert knowledge. Recent studies have shown that artificial intelligence (AI) based facial analysis can match the diagnostic capabilities of expert clinicians in syndrome identification. In genera...

"Validation of Artificial Intelligence Severity Assessment in Metopic Craniosynostosis".

The Cleft palate-craniofacial journal : official publication of the American Cleft Palate-Craniofacial Association
OBJECTIVE: Several severity metrics have been developed for metopic craniosynostosis, including a recent machine learning-derived algorithm. This study assessed the diagnostic concordance between machine learning and previously published severity ind...

Image processing and machine learning for telehealth craniosynostosis screening in newborns.

Journal of neurosurgery. Pediatrics
OBJECTIVE: The authors sought to evaluate the accuracy of a novel telehealth-compatible diagnostic software system for identifying craniosynostosis within a newborn (< 1 year old) population. Agreement with gold standard craniometric diagnostics was ...

Combining deep learning with 3D stereophotogrammetry for craniosynostosis diagnosis.

Scientific reports
Craniosynostosis is a condition in which cranial sutures fuse prematurely, causing problems in normal brain and skull growth in infants. To limit the extent of cosmetic and functional problems, swift diagnosis is needed. The goal of this study is to ...

Computer Simulation and Optimization of Cranial Vault Distraction.

The Cleft palate-craniofacial journal : official publication of the American Cleft Palate-Craniofacial Association
OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study was to validate the proof of concept of a computer-simulated cranial distraction, demonstrating accurate shape and end volume.

Bone Fusion in Normal and Pathological Development is Constrained by the Network Architecture of the Human Skull.

Scientific reports
Craniosynostosis, the premature fusion of cranial bones, affects the correct development of the skull producing morphological malformations in newborns. To assess the susceptibility of each craniofacial articulation to close prematurely, we used a ne...

CNN-Based Classification of Craniosynostosis Using 2D Distance Maps.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
Craniosynostosis is a condition associated with the premature fusion of skull sutures affecting infants. 3D photogrammetric scans are a promising alternative to computed tomography scans in cases of single suture or nonsyndromic synostosis for diagno...
