Photogrammetry of the Muscles of Facial Expression

Cells Tissues Organs, 1988
The present study has attempted to determine the volume, square measure as well as length, width and thickness of the individual muscles of facial expression by photogrammetry. 15 fresh male head specimens were employed for a careful dissection of muscle layers. The volume was measured using the immersion procedure.

Quantitative ultrasonography of facial muscles

Muscle & Nerve, 2013
Introduction: There is no standardized method for examination of facial muscles with ultrasound. The purpose of this study was to identify those facial muscles accessible for reliable identification and to provide reference data. Methods: In healthy subjects all facial muscles were screened for visibility, separation from adjacent muscles, and ...

Sonoanatomy of the muscles of facial expression

Surgical and Radiologic Anatomy, 1988
Primary anatomic studies served for identification and differentiation of the individual mimetic muscles. As a second step, we investigated the clinical potential of ultrasound imaging to visualize the mimetic musculature in 15 volunteers. This examination technique was used to diagnose pathological alterations, especially associated with facial palsy.

Myoglobinopathy affecting facial and oropharyngeal muscles

Neuromuscular Disorders, 2022
Myoglobinopathy is a rare autosomal dominant myopathy that manifests in adulthood with proximal and axial weakness and variable respiratory and cardiac failure. Muscle pathology features associated with myoglobinopathy include characteristic sarcoplasmic bodies in skeletal and cardiac muscles.

Performance-driven muscle-based facial animation

Computer Animation and Virtual Worlds, 2001
We describe a system to synthesize facial expressions by editing captured performances. For this purpose, we use the actuation of expression muscles to control facial expressions.

FACIAL PARALYSIS AND MUSCLE-RELAXANT ANESTHESIA

Archives of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, 1956
THE FOLLOWING case report is presented primarily to forewarn otologists of the insidious danger of using succinylcholine-drip muscle-relaxant anesthesia in any surgical procedure where the identification of the seventh cranial nerve is important to its preservation. REPORT OF CASE A 32-year-old woman had chronic left mastoiditis of 10 years' duration.

Effect of Unilateral Partial Facial Paralysis on Periosteal Growth at the Muscle-Bone Interface of Facial Muscles and Facial Bones

Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, 2003
In a previous study, the influence of the midfacial musculature upon growth and development of the maxilla and mandible was established macroscopically. Dry skull measurements revealed a reduced premaxillary, maxillary, mandibular, and anterior corpus length with a simultaneous increase in mandibular ramal height on the paralyzed side.

Muscle-Nerve-Muscle Grafting for Facial Reanimation in Rats

Annals of Otology, Rhinology & Laryngology, 2017
Objective: Facial paralysis is a devastating condition leaving patients with a myriad of aesthetic and functional consequences. Muscle-nerve-muscle (MNM) neurotization is a reinnervation technique that involves implanting an autogenous nerve graft as a conduit between an innervated “donor” muscle and a ...

Searching for proprioceptors in human facial muscles

Neuroscience Letters, 2017
The human craniofacial muscles innervated by the facial nerve typically lack muscle spindles. However these muscles have proprioception that participates in the coordination of facial movements. A functional substitution of facial proprioceptors by cutaneous mechanoreceptors has been proposed but at present this alternative has not been demonstrated ...

Facial muscle adaptation for expression customization

ACM SIGGRAPH 2007 posters, 2007
There are two major approaches to creating 3DCG facial expressions: The first is based on facial muscle simulation and the second is the blend-shape approach. The blend shape approach is more familiar to creators than the facial muscle approach when they synthesize the facial expressions of 3DCG characters.
