Evaluation of Skeletal Mid-Facial Asymmetry Using Analyze 9.0
We establish a plane of reference using the inferior orbital foramen and the superior surface of the external auditory meatus to align the head position.
We then view a number of transverse slices, define the malar bones as objects (See 2 in green and 3 in yellow above), and measure the volume differences between the left and right sides using the total volume for all the slices on each side.
Left side volume : 27,262 mm3
Right side volume: 13,217 mm3
The measurements above show that the left side volume is twice as great as the right side.
This patient is right side under-developed
