accurate prediction of the surgical outcome is important in treating dentofacial deformities. visualized treatment objectives usually involve manual surgical simulation based on tracing of cephalometric radiographs. recent technical advancements have led to the use of computer assisted imaging systems in treatment planning for orthognathic surgical cases. the purpose of this study was to examin...

cephalometric norms of mcnamara analysis have been studied in various populations due to their optimal efficiency. dolphin cephalometric software greatly enhances the conduction of this analysis for orthodontic measurements. however, dolphin is very expensive and cannot be afforded by many clinicians in developing countries. a suitable alternative software program in farsi/english will greatly ...

OBJECTIVES Cephalometric norms of McNamara analysis have been studied in various populations due to their optimal efficiency. Dolphin cephalometric software greatly enhances the conduction of this analysis for orthodontic measurements. However, Dolphin is very expensive and cannot be afforded by many clinicians in developing countries. A suitable alternative software program in Farsi/English wi...

Aim: In this study, we aimed to compare the two-dimensional predictions made by two computer software packages with postoperative values, and thus evaluate clinical reliability of digital orthognathic surgery planning. Methodology: Orthodontic treatment was performed before surgery, same surgical team double-jaw surgeries. We included 20 individuals (10 females, 10 males) skeletal Class III mal...

•Comparison of 2 the most used software programs for upper airway assessment.•Significant sample size (n = 50) composed using strict inclusion criteria.•Results show that both are reliable assessment. IntroductionSeveral imaging with different tools available (UAW) analysis by means cone beam computed tomography. Because this wide variability, study aimed to compare reproducibility two on UAW s...

BACKGROUND Dolphin® visual treatment objective (VTO) prediction software is routinely utilized by orthodontists during the treatment planning of orthognathic cases to help predict post-surgical soft tissue changes. Although surgical soft tissue prediction is considered to be a vital tool, its accuracy is not well understood in tow-jaw surgical procedures. The objective of this study was to quan...

We present Dolphin, an extensible programming language for autonomous vehicle networks. A Dolphin program expresses an orchestrated execution of tasks defined compositionally for multiple vehicles. Building upon the base case of elementary one-vehicle tasks, the built-in operators include support for composing tasks in several forms, for instance according to concurrent, sequential, or event-ba...

In this study, magnetic resonance (MR) images of the brain of an adult common dolphin (Delphinus delphis) were acquired in the coronal plane at 66 antero-posterior levels. From these scans a computer-generated set of resectioned virtual images in orthogonal planes was constructed using the programs VoxelView and VoxelMath (Vital Images, Inc., Michigan State Univ.). Sections in all three planes ...
