  • Patent number: 12141994
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for assessing nasal deviation and symmetry via the processing of facial surface data. Facial surface data may be processed to determine a nasal deviation measure indicative of a lateral deviation between a nasal midline and a facial midplane. The facial surface data may also be processed to determine a measure of nasal symmetry associated with a selected nasal surface region, such as an aesthetic subunit. Nasal deviation and symmetry information based on both measures may then be presented. In some example implementations, a single nasal symmetry measure is generated and present for a given nasal surface region. Reference surface data characterizing a reference symmetrical facial shape and having a defined facial direction relative to a coordinate system may be employed to align the facial surface data prior to the determination of the nasal deviation and nasal symmetry measures.

  • Publication number: 20180271572
    Abstract: The present application provides miniature and micro-scale conformable chain mail devices for skeletal fixation, stabilization, and repair, and methods of manufacture and use thereof. The structural devices comprise a conformable sheet of interconnecting polygonal links that form a chain mail mesh having a first and a second outer surface, wherein: the interconnecting links comprise planar surfaces that combine to form the first and second outer surfaces, respectively, of the conformable sheet. Also provide are methods of using the structural device for stabilization of bone tissue, for fixation of bone tissue, as a bone graft patch or as a thin bone tissue replacement.
