SkullEngine: A Multi-stage CNN Framework for Collaborative CBCT Image Segmentation and Landmark Detection [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2021
We propose a multi-stage coarse-to-fine CNN-based framework, called SkullEngine, for high-resolution segmentation and large-scale landmark detection through a collaborative, integrated, and scalable JSD model and three segmentation and landmark detection refinement models.

Radiolucent lesions of the mandible: a pattern-based approach to diagnosis

open access: yesInsights into Imaging, 2013
ObjectivesRadiolucent mandibular lesions seen on panoramic radiographs develop from both odontogenic and non-odontogenic structures. They represent a broad spectrum of lesions with a varying degree of malignant potential. The purpose of this review is to

Torus mandibularis

open access: yesThe Pan African Medical Journal, 2017
A 54-year-old man who presented to the clinic for a routine examination was found to have a hard swelling in the floor of mouth. The swelling was noticed at the age of ten years and had been gradually progressing over the years.

Sex determination of human mandible using metrical parameters.

open access: yesJournal of clinical and diagnostic research : JCDR, 2013
INTRODUCTION Determination of sex from an unknown human bone is an important role in forensic and anthropology field. The mandible is the largest and hardest facial bone, that commonly resist post mortem damage and forms an important source of ...

A Novel Method to Detect 3D Mandibular Changes Related to Soft-Diet Feeding

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2017
Craniofacial morphology varies among individuals, which is regulated by the interaction between genes and the environment. Soft-diet feeding is a widely-used experimental model for studying the association between the skeletal morphology and muscle ...

Dosage‐dependent effects of FGFR2W290R mutation on craniofacial shape and cellular dynamics of the basicranial synchondroses

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Craniosynostosis is a common yet complex birth defect, characterized by premature fusion of the cranial sutures that can be syndromic or nonsyndromic. With over 180 syndromic associations, reaching genetic diagnoses and understanding variations in underlying cellular mechanisms remains a challenge.

Systemic assessment of patients undergoing dental implant surgeries: A trans- and post-operative analysis

open access: yesNigerian Journal of Surgery, 2017
Background: Procedure-related and patient-related factors influence the prognosis of dental implants to a major extent. Hence, we aimed to evaluate and analyze various systemic factors in patients receiving dental implants.

Statistical skull models from 3D X-ray images [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2006
We present 2 statistical models of the skull and mandible built upon an elastic registration method of 3D meshes. The aim of this work is to relate degrees of freedom of skull anatomy, as static relations are of main interest for anthropology and legal medicine.

Who was the real sabertooth predator: Thylacosmilus or Thylacoleo?

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Sabertoothed mammalian predators, all now extinct, were almost exclusively feloid carnivorans (Eutheria, Placentalia): here a couple of extinct metatherian predators are considered in comparison with the placental sabertooths. Thylacosmilus (the “marsupial sabertooth”) and Thylacoleo (the “marsupial lion”) were both relatively large (puma ...

Bite of the cats: relationships between functional integration and mechanical performance as revealed by mandible geometry.

open access: yesSystematic Biology, 2013
Cat-like carnivorous mammals represent a relatively homogeneous group of species whose morphology appears constrained by exclusive adaptations for meat eating.
