The aim of this study was to assess the feasibility of complex unicortical calvarial harvesting by using the Cold Ablation Robot-Guided Laser Osteotome (CARLO® primo+). A cadaveric study was performed with a progressive complexity of the bone harvest...
BACKGROUND: Craniofacial computed tomography (CT) is the diagnostic investigation of choice for craniosynostosis, but high radiation dose remains a concern.
A brain tumor is an abnormal mass of tissue located inside the skull. In addition to putting pressure on the healthy parts of the brain, it can lead to significant health problems. Depending on the region of the brain tumor, it can cause a wide range...
Magnetic resonance imaging is an important tool for characterizing volumetric changes of the piglet brain during development. Typically, an early step of an imaging analysis pipeline is brain extraction, or skull stripping. Brain extractions are usua...
Transcranial ultrasound imaging has been playing an increasingly important role in the non-invasive treatment of brain disorders. However, the conventional mesh-based numerical wave solvers, which are an integral part of imaging algorithms, suffer fr...
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.
Facial reconstruction (otherwise known as facial approximation) is an alternative method that has been widely accepted in forensic anthropological and archaeological circumstances. This method is considered useful for creating the virtual face of a p...

Cranial window surgery allows for the imaging of brain tissue in live mice with the use of multiphoton or other intravital imaging techniques. However, when performing any craniotomy by hand, there is often thermal damage to brain tissue, which is in...
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 ...
