3D Craniofacial Cephalometric Analysis
- Conditions
- Malocclusion
- Registration Number
- NCT01413373
- Lead Sponsor
- Cliniques universitaires Saint-Luc- Université Catholique de Louvain
- Brief Summary
Development of three-dimensional craniofacial cephalometric analysis for virtual planning in orthognathic surgery.
- Detailed Description
Cone beam computed tomography is taken for diagnosis independently from this study. Investigators are using this medical imaging for performing the 3D cephalometric analysis. Investigators apply a set of well described landmarks of three-dimensional reconstruction of the skull from patients suffering from diverse craniofacial malformations. Then a set of specific measurements is taken from the patient and provide insights how to modify the anatomy of the patient to improve the skull's architecture and symmetry
