An Atlas of Human Growing Skull Statistical Shape Models

I am pleased to share the Atlas I created using the Dense Correspondence Analysis (DeCA) tool for 3D surfaces with anyone interested in craniofacial imaging. This set of 19 .mrd files, spanning from 0 days to adulthood, was created from CT scans of 184 normal people. The models are oriented according to the vestibular orientation. My purpose was to superimpose an age-matched shape model onto 3D imaging of craniofacial malformations for better analysis and understanding of those malformations.

If you are interested, you can download a folder containing a subfolder with the 19 .mrb files and some complementary files that help explain how to use the Statistical Shape Models.

A special acknowledgement @Murat Maga for his help.

This is the link to download the folder. Atlas of Growing Human Skull Statistical Shape Models In Vestibular Orientation.

Best Regards.
