Cranial sex estimation often relies on visual assessments made by a forensic anthropologist following published standards. However, these methods are prone to human bias and may be less accurate when applied to populations other than those for which ...
Transcranial ultrasound imaging is a popular method to study cerebral functionality and diagnose brain injuries. However, the detected ultrasound signal is greatly distorted due to the aberration caused by the skull bone. The aberration mechanism mai...

PURPOSE: Timely identification of intracranial blood products is clinically impactful, however the detection of subdural hematoma (SDH) on non-contrast CT scans of the head (NCCTH) is challenging given interference from the adjacent calvarium. This w...
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...
Prompt personal identification is required during disasters that can result in many casualties. To rapidly estimate sex based on skull structure, this study applied deep learning using two-dimensional silhouette images, obtained from head postmortem ...
Modeling and manufacturing of personalized cranial implants are important research areas that may decrease the waiting time for patients suffering from cranial damage. The modeling of personalized implants may be partially automated by the use of dee...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: CT imaging exposes patients to ionizing radiation. MR imaging is radiation free but previously has not been able to produce diagnostic-quality images of bone on a timeline suitable for clinical use. We developed automated moti...
This project aimed to develop an artificial intelligence program tailored for cephalometric images. The program employs a convolutional neural network with 6 convolutional layers and 2 affine layers. It identifies 18 key points on the skull to comput...
PURPOSE: Ultrashort echo time (UTE) MRI can be a radiation-free alternative to CT for craniofacial imaging of pediatric patients. However, unlike CT, bone-specific MR imaging is limited by long scan times, relatively low spatial resolution, and a tim...
In this paper, we investigate the effectiveness of shape completion neural networks as clinical aids in maxillofacial surgery planning. We present a pipeline to apply shape completion networks to automatically reconstruct complete eumorphic 3D meshes...
