Digital image processing in cephalometric analysis.

Abstract

Digital image processing methods were applied to improve the practicability of cephalometric analysis. The individual X-ray film was digitized by the aid of a high resolution microscope-photometer. Digital processing was done using a VAX 8600 computer system. An improvement of the image quality was achieved by means of various digital enhancement and filtering techniques.

Further studies of crania from ancient northern Africa: an analysis of crania from first dynasty Egyptian tombs, using discriminant functions.

An analysis of First Dynasty crania from Abydos was undertaken using multiple discriminant functions. The results demonstrate greater affinity with Upper Nile Valley patterns, but also suggest change from earlier craniometric trends. Gene flow and movement of northern officials to the important southern city may explain the findings.
