Computed Tomography01:10

Computed Tomography

4.3K
Tomography refers to imaging by sections. Computed tomography (CT) is a non-invasive imaging technique that uses computers to analyze several cross-sectional X-rays to reveal minute details about structures in the body.
The technique was invented in the 1970s and is based on the principle that as X-rays pass through the body, they are absorbed or reflected at different levels. In the technique, a patient lies on a motorized platform while a computerized axial tomography (CAT) scanner rotates...

Overview of the Skull

4.3K
The cranium (skull) is the skeletal structure of the head that supports the face and protects the brain. It is subdivided into the facial bones and the brain case, or cranial vault. The facial bones underlie the facial structures, form the nasal cavity, enclose the eyeballs, and support the teeth of the upper and lower jaws.
The cranial vault surrounds and protects the brain and houses the middle and inner ear structures. This cavity is bounded superiorly by the rounded top of the skull, which...

Sutures of the Skull01:22

Sutures of the Skull

6.3K
The human skull is composed of several bones that come together to protect the brain and support the structures of the face. The junctions where these bones meet are called sutures.
Sutures are immobile joints between adjacent bones of the skull. The narrow gap between the bones is filled with dense, fibrous connective tissue that unites the bones. The long sutures located between the skull bones are not straight but instead follow irregular, tightly twisting paths. These twisting lines tightly...

Cranial Bones: Superior and Posterior View01:14

Cranial Bones: Superior and Posterior View

2.0K
The superior view of the cranium shows the frontal and paired parietal bones.
The frontal bone is the single bone that forms the forehead. At its anterior midline, between the eyebrows, there is a slight depression called the glabella. The frontal bone also forms the supraorbital margin of the orbit. Near the middle of this margin is the supraorbital foramen, the opening that provides passage for a sensory nerve to the forehead. The frontal bone is thickened just above each supraorbital margin,...

Cranial Bones: Lateral View01:27

Cranial Bones: Lateral View

2.1K
The lateral view of the cranium is dominated by temporal, sphenoid, and ethmoid bones.
The temporal bone forms the lower lateral side of the skull. The temporal bone is subdivided into several regions. The flattened upper portion is the squamous portion of the temporal bone. Below this area and projecting anteriorly is the zygomatic process of the temporal bone, which forms the posterior portion of the zygomatic arch. Posteriorly is the mastoid portion of the temporal bone. Projecting...

Area of Science:

  • Anatomy
  • Anthropology
  • Radiology

Background:

  • Individual anatomical variability is a well-studied area in both domestic and foreign scientific literature.
  • Understanding skull morphology is crucial for various fields, including forensic science and anthropology.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the individual anatomical variability of the human skull's facial section.
  • To analyze this variability based on gender and craniotype using computed tomography (CT) data.

Main Methods:

  • Utilized 80 computed tomography (CT) scans of healthy human heads.
  • Analyzed data focusing on the facial section of the skull without pathologies.

Main Results:

  • Established distinct cranial index ranges for brachycrania, mesocrania, and dolichocrania in both males and females.
  • Quantified variations in cranial indices across different craniotypes and genders.
  • Identified significant differences in linear dimensions, lateral polygon shapes, and profilograms between male and female skulls.

    • Conclusions:

    • Confirmed individual anatomical variability in the skull's facial section, influenced by gender and craniotype.
    • Demonstrated that cranial profile characteristics are dependent on both sex and craniotype.
    • Provided clear descriptions of brachycranial, mesocranial, and dolichocranial types and their interrelationships.
