Title: Imaging of orofacial clefting disorders. Author: Castillo M, Mukherji SK. Journal: Neuroimaging Clin N Am; 2000 Feb; 10(1):253-69, x. PubMed ID: 10658164. Abstract: This article discusses the imaging and clinical features of patients with facial clefts. Patients with facial clefts are classified according to interocular distance. Typing of facial clefts is emphasized to determine which patients need to undergo not only imaging, but also imaging of the brain, to assess associated intracranial anomalies. The genetics, treatment, and implications that these clefting disorders have on the growth of the face are also discussed.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
