PURPOSE OF REVIEW: This review describes recent innovations in craniofacial imaging, focusing on emerging techniques such as 3D photogrammetry, smartphone-based scanning, and artificial intelligence applied to cephalometric assessments in facial plas...
Sex estimation is an indispensable test for identifying skeletal remains in the field of forensic anthropology. We developed a novel sex-estimation method for skulls and several parts of the skull using machine learning. A total of 240 skull shapes w...
This study aims to explore the feasibility of a deep learning approach to correct the distortion caused by the skull, thereby developing a transcranial adaptive focusing method for safe ultrasonic treatment in opening of the blood-brain barrier (BBB)...

This perspective focuses on the potential of artificial intelligence (AI) in craniomaxillofacial (CMF) bone tissue engineering, mitigating current challenges, and driving the development of tailored biomaterials and clinical translation. CMF bone tis...
This study aimed to determine whether trigeminal neuralgia can be diagnosed using convolutional neural networks (CNNs) based on plain X-ray skull images. A labeled dataset of 166 skull images from patients aged over 16 years with trigeminal neuralgia...
OBJECTIVES: To establish age estimation models of northern Chinese Han adults using cranial suture images obtained by CT and multiplanar reformation (MPR), and to explore the applicability of cranial suture closure rule in age estimation of northern ...

Skull-stripping, an important pre-processing step in neuroimage computing, involves the automated removal of non-brain anatomy (such as the skull, eyes, and ears) from brain images to facilitate brain segmentation and analysis. Manual segmentation is...
It is easy to cause thermal damage to the bone tissue when the surgical robot performs skull drilling to remove bone flaps, due to the large diameter of the drill bit, the large heat-generating area, and the long drilling time. Therefore, in order to...
