Area of Science:

  • Pediatric Radiology
  • Craniofacial Surgery
  • Medical Imaging

Background:

  • Craniosynostosis involves premature fusion of cranial sutures, leading to syndromic or non-syndromic conditions.
  • Radiology is crucial for assessing, managing, and monitoring patients with craniosynostosis.
  • General radiology departments often perform initial investigations.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To present the radiological features of various craniosynostosis types.
  • To emphasize the role of plain radiography in initial diagnosis.
  • To highlight the complementary utility of computed tomography in specialist centers.

Main Methods:

  • Review of radiological features of craniosynostosis.
  • Emphasis on plain radiography findings.
