MR appearance of a rare ameloblastic fibroma with formation of dental hard tissues with histopathologic correlation: a case report
An ameloblastic fibroma with formation of dental hard tissues, which the classical name is ameloblastic fibro-odontoma (AFO), is a rare type of mixed odontogenic tumor. An 8-year-old boy was diagnosed with AFO...

Open AccessDeep orofacial phenoty** of population-based infants with isolated cleft lip and isolated cleft palate
Isolated orofacial clefts (OFC) are common with poorly understood aetiology. Heterogeneous phenotypes and subphenotypes confound aetiological variant findings. To improve OFC phenome understanding, population-...

Three-dimensional assessment of facial morphology in children and adolescents with juvenile idiopathic arthritis and moderate to severe TMJ involvement using 3D surface scans
This study aims to (1) assess the facial morphology in juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) subjects with moderate to severe temporomandibular joint (TMJ) involvement using 3D surface scans and (2) compare the ...

A new implementation of digital X-ray radiogrammetry and reference curves of four indices of cortical bone for healthy European adults
Digital X-ray radiogrammetry performs measurements on a hand radiograph in digital form. We present an improved implementation of the method and provide reference curves for four indices for the amount of bone...

Phenotypic subregions within the split-hand/foot malformation 1 locus
Split-hand/foot malformation 1 (SHFM1) is caused by chromosomal aberrations involving the region 7q21.3, DLX5 mutation, and dysregulation of DLX5/DLX6 expression by long-range position effects. SHFM1 can be isola...

Genus Zero Graph Segmentation: Estimation of Intracranial Volume
The intracranial volume (ICV) in children with premature fusion of one or more sutures in the calvaria is of interest due to the risk of increased intracranial pressure. Challenges for automatic estimation of ...

Adult Height Prediction Models
We review seven methods for adult height prediction (AHP) based on bone age, ranging from the Bayley–Pinneau method, published in 1952, to the BoneXpert method, published in 2009. These models are based on fou...

A Statistical Model of Head Asymmetry in Infants with Deformational Plagiocephaly
Deformational plagiocephaly is a term describing cranial a-symmetry and deformation commonly seen in infants. The purpose of this work was to develop a methodology for assessment and modelling of head asymmetr...

A Point-Wise Quantification of Asymmetry Using Deformation Fields: Application to the Study of the Crouzon Mouse Model
This paper introduces a novel approach to quantify asymmetry in each point of a surface. The measure is based on analysing displacement vectors resulting from nonrigid image registration. A symmetric atlas, ge...

Sparse Statistical Deformation Model for the Analysis of Craniofacial Malformations in the Crouzon Mouse
Crouzon syndrome is characterised by the premature fusion of cranial sutures. Recently the first genetic Crouzon mouse model was generated. In this study, Micro CT skull scannings of wild-type mice and Crouzon...

Transitions of Multi-scale Singularity Trees
Multi-Scale Singularity Trees(MSSTs) [10] are multi-scale image descriptors aimed at representing the deep structures of images. Changes in images are directly translated to changes in the deep structures; the...

Multi-scale Singularity Trees: Soft-Linked Scale-Space Hierarchies
We consider images as manifolds embedded in a hybrid of a high dimensional space of coordinates and features. Using the proposed energy functional and mathematical landmarks, images are partitioned into segmen...

Non-rigid image registration using bone growth model
Non-rigid registration has traditionally used physical models like elasticity and fluids. These models are very seldom valid models of the difference between the registered images. This paper presents a non-ri...
