3D Photography to Quantify the Severity of Metopic Craniosynostosis. MK Bruce, WH Tao, J Beiriger, C Christensen, MJ Pfaff, R Whitaker, JA Goldstein.

Results of this study show that 3dMD photography is a valid alternative to CT for evaluation of head shape in MCS. Its use will provide an objective, quantifiable means of assessing outcomes in a rigorous manner while decreasing radiation exposure in this patient population.

School-age outcomes in patients with unilateral coronal synostosis: comparison of fronto-orbital advancement and endoscopic strip craniectomy. K Varagur, GB Skolnick, SD Naidoo, MD Smyth, KB Patel.

This study examines facial asymmetry, desire for revision, and patient-reported outcomes at school age in children who received either endoscopic strip craniectomy with helmet therapy or fronto-orbital advancement.

Is the degree of facial swelling after dental extraction sufficient to justify the current delays to radiotherapy mask production? A pilot evaluation of post-extraction swelling using 3D photography. McCormick et al.

Facial swelling following dental extraction may not be sufficient in itself to justify the current delays in mask production and subsequent delivery of radiotherapy. Further definitive studies are needed to optimize how dental extractions should be timed within head and neck cancer care pathways.

Cohort profile: early school years follow-up of the Asking Questions about Alcohol in Pregnancy Longitudinal Study in Melbourne, Australia (AQUA at 6). E Muggli, J Halliday, EJ Elliott, et al.

Established in 2011, the study is a prebirth cohort of 1570 mother and child pairs designed to assess the effects of low to moderate prenatal alcohol exposure and sporadic binge drinking on long-term child development.

A Three-Dimensional-Based Morphometric Analysis of a Standardized Overcorrection Technique for Fronto-Orbital Advancement in Metopic Craniosynostosis. MJ Pfaff, MK Bruce, S Erpenbeck, et al.

he purpose of this study is to describe in detail a standardized technique to fronto-orbital advancement utilizing the concept of “overcorrection” and objectively evaluate intermediate results.
