3dMD facial images and deep transfer learning have been firstly combined for evaluating the facial attractiveness in patients undergoing Orthognathic surgery.
The hand at a straight neutral posture was scanned using the 3dMDhand system. Next, the hand was scanned while in a power grip at each of three wrist postures (20° of radial deviation, neutral, and 30° of ulnar deviation), along with the corresponding palmar hand cast.
As the first step in customizing the prototype, a set of 21 facial anthropometric landmarks and 15 dimensions was selected for the design. The faces of three members of the research team were scanned using a 3dMD digital scanning system. From these scans, algorithms were developed to create digital representations of the contours of the RPD frame.
The 3dMDface system was used to capture the nasolabial morphology of the individuals.
3D real scans: We acquired 3D scans of 20 subjects (5 females and 15 males) with a 3dMD HR scanner. Subjects are mainly students and university personnel, 30 years old on average.
The sample of the present retrospective study consisted of 14 MZ twin pairs recruited from the archive of Marmara University. The 3dMDface system was used to capture the twin pairs.
We conducted this study to identify phenotypes of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) in children based on lifestyle, sleep habits, age, obesity, sex, soft tissue facial features, and specific craniofacial abnormalities.
The findings suggest that until age 6, there are no significant differences… therefore, efforts should be made to ensure early diagnosis so that minimally invasive surgery is a viable treatment option.
We present a fully automated pipeline to identify craniofacial landmarks in real time, and we use it to assess the head shape of patients with craniosynostosis using 3D photogrammetry.
Infants received 3dMD scans at 2 months of age, at clinical resolution of their head shape, and at 12 months of age. If their head shape was not resolved by 12 months of age, they received only two 3dMD scans (at 2 and 12 months of age).
