Predictability of Craniofacial Skeletal Age with Geometric Morphometrics

This study aims to estimate skeletal age of craniofacial shape obtained from cone beam computed tomography (CBCT)-defined facial and basicranial landmarks using geometric morphometrics method in a random sample of growing patients, and explore the correlation between craniofacial shape and skeletal age as determined from hand and wrist radiograph.Generalized Procrustes analysis (GPA) of craniofacial shape with estimation of centroid size was...
