From: A rare case of the scaphocephalic skull of an adult male
Mesurment | Description |
|---|---|
1. Maximum cranial length (g-op) | Direct distance measured between glabella and opisthocranion |
2. Maximum cranial breadth (eu-eu)( Euryon) | Maximum width of skull perpendicular to midsagittal plane |
3. Bizygomatic diameter (zy-zy) | Maximum breadth across the zygomatic arches, perpendicular to the median plane |
4. Midfacial width (zm-zm) | The shortest distance between right and left zygomaxillare |
5. Basion-bregma height (ba-b) | Direct distance from the lowest point on the anterior margin of foramen magnum to bregma |
6. Upper facial height (n pr) | Direct distance from nasion to prosthion |
7. Minimum frontal breadth (ft-ft) | Direct distance between 2 frontotemporale |
8. Frontal chord (n-b) | Direct distance from nasion to bregma taken in the midsagittal plane. |
9.Parietal chord (b-l) | Direct distance from bregma to lambda taken in the midsagittal plane |
10. Occipital chord (l-o) | Direct distance from lambda to opisthion |
11. Biasterionic width (ast-ast) | The shortest distance between right and left asterion |
12.Arc length (n-b) | Arch length measured between nasion and bregma |
13. Arc length (b-l) | Arch length measured between bregma and lambda |
14. Arc length (l-o) | Arch length measured between lambda and opisthion |
