Characterization of brain response following cranial radiotherapy
Cranial radiotherapy (CRT) is a vital component for the treatment of pediatric brain tumors, with combination therapy that includes CRT resulting in almost 90\% five-year survival. However, survivors treated with CRT exhibit alterations in brain development and long-term deficits in brain structure …

Cranial Sexual Dimorphism in Hispanics Using Geometric Morphometrics
… the purpose of this thesis is to explore cranial size and shape sexual dimorphism in Hispanics when compared to American Blacks and American Whites using geometric morphometric methods. Landmark data for American Blacks (N=75) and Whites (N=384) was obtained from the Forensic Anthropology …

A morphometric study of cranial shape in the Hominoidea
… description to the problem of defining hominoid cranial form. The aim has been to produce an objective assessment of the relative merits of the methods from both a practical and theoretical perspective. The thesis is presented in three parts. In the first, several approaches which offer potential …

Biomechanics of Cranial Decompression Procedures in Traumatic Brain Injury
Cranial decompression procedures such as decompressive craniectomy remove a portion of the skull to relieve elevated intracranial pressure in severe TBI cases. As these procedures can be seen as a mechanical, pressure vessel type problem, engineering methods such as finite element (FE) modelling …

Development of a biofidelic cranial bone surrogate using additive manufacturing
Cranial bone surrogates are widely used in many applications, including mechanical, impact and blast, and biomedical testing. Such surrogate models often attempt to mimic the properties of bone to achieve best results. This research focuses on using additive manufacturing to develop a 3D printed …

Influence of Mandibular Fixed Retainers on Diagnostic Quality of Cranial MRI
<p>The purpose of this study was to evaluate the diagnostic quality of MR images taken on subjects with different types of orthodontic lingual retainers in place. The study provides guidelines and recommendations for use of lingual retainer materials in those patients who are or may potentially …

Variation in cranial base flexion and craniofacial morphology in modern humans
Cranial base flexion has been used extensively as a baseline or standard from which to interpret differences in craniofacial growth and morphology. Lateral cephalometric radiographs of 414 adults representing seven samples from around the world were compared for variation in cranial base and facial …

The correlation between cranial fractures and brain trauma: a retrospective study
… concern. TBI has been noted to co-occur with cranial fractures, however this is not always case. At present, there is a gap in literature regarding the correlative relationship between the presence of cranial fracture and brain trauma. The knowledge and understanding of this correlation is …

Large-scale simulation of the mechanical response of porcine cranial bone
… to describe the stress-strain response of cranial bone in mammals that can be applied to animal studies for model validation purposes as well as in human head injury studies. First, we explicitly characterized a microstructure specimen by generating large biofidelic meshes from [mu]CT …

Improved Cranial Fracture Metrics For Assessing The Protective Benefits Of Helmet Systems
… of this study was to improve the prediction of cranial fracture outcomes associated with BHBT, focusing on the effect of impact curvature and flat face diameter. Representative impact curvatures and flat face diameters were derived from helmet back face deformation measurements in free-air. An …

Three-dimensional Computed Tomographic Analysis of Normal Developmental Process of Cranial Sutures
최근 삼차원 전산단층촬영이 도입되어 머리뼈조기유합증이나 자세성머리쏠림증과 같은 영유아 머리뼈 이상의 진단에 많이 활용되고 있다. 그러나 진단의 기준이 되는 정상 머리뼈봉합 발달 과정의 삼차원 전산단층사진 소견에 대한 연구는 아직까지 미비한 실정이다. 이에 본 연구는 삼차원 전산단층촬영을 시행한 생후 12개월 이하의 영아 243명을 대상으로 시상봉합, 관상봉합, 시옷봉합 및 이마봉합 등 머리덮개뼈의 주요 봉합과 나비이마봉합, 나비마루봉합, 나비비늘봉합, 비늘봉합, 마루꼭지봉합, 뒤통수꼭지봉합 등 머리덮개뼈의 작은 봉합의 닫힘 과정을 …
