Co-ordinate grids for three-dimensional facial measurements

JW Ferguson

Alternative methods for recording the shape of the facial soft tissue integument in three dimensions are discussed. The requirements for and problems associated with head positioning are indicated, and a technique is described by which head positioning errors can be overcome. The results of three-dimensional analysis of a sample of human subjects are described, with particular reference to the method of analysis and orientation planes selected. Finally, possible clinical uses for three-dimensional recording are suggested.
