Open-Source 3D Morphing Software for Facial Plastic Surgery and Facial Landmark Detection Research and Open Access Face Data Set Based on Deep Learning (Artificial Intelligence) Generated Synthetic 3D Models.

The scarcity of 3D facial models presents a significant hurdle for researchers and educators. Gathering such data demands substantial resources. To introduce an open-source 3D morphing software to generate 3D facial data sets for research and to provide a large sample data set that is based on synthetically generated 3D models.

Three-dimensional (3D) area and volume measurements for rhinoplasty.

Background: Morphometric changes achieved in rhinoplasty are mostly analyzed on two-dimensional (2D) images. However, most of these alterations are amenable to three-dimensional (3D) analysis.

Objectives: Objective measurements for rhinoplasty are currently done on 2D photographic analyses.

Evaluating the agreement and reliability of a web-based facial analysis tool for rhinoplasty.

Purpose: Rhinoplasty is one of the most common and challenging plastic surgery procedures. Facial analysis is a crucial step in planning. Utilizing three-dimensional (3D) model of a patient's face is an emerging way of performing facial analysis.

Surgical Algorithms in Rhinoplasty: A Scoping Review of the Current Status.

Background: Algorithms define a sequence to approaching a subject. This study represents a scoping review seeking to define the role of surgical algorithms in rhinoplasty.

Methods: A scoping review was conducted.

Facial Surface Anthropometric Features and Measurements With an Emphasis on Rhinoplasty.

Background: Facial features and measurements are utilized to analyze patients' faces for various reasons, including surgical planning, scientific communications, patient-surgeon communications, and post-surgery evaluations.

Objectives: There are numerous descriptions regarding these features and measurements scattered throughout the literature, and the authors did not encounter a current compilation of these parameters in the medical literature.

Methods: A narrative literature review of the published medical literature for facial measurements used for facial analysis in rhinoplasty was conducted through the electronic databases MEDLINE/PubMed and Google Scholar, along with a citation search.

Digitizing rhinoplasty: a web application with three-dimensional preoperative evaluation to assist rhinoplasty surgeons with surgical planning.

Purpose: Rhinoplasty is one of the most common and challenging plastic surgery procedures. The results of the operation have a significant impact on the facial appearance. The planning is critical for successful rhinoplasty surgery.

Mobile technology for recording surgical procedures.

Mobile technology has been advancing in countless directions, and in particular medicine has been an attractive place for mobile technology innovators. The recording of surgical procedures, however, has not been one of those directions, possibly because there is a lack of software specifically designed for recording open surgical procedures. Using an iPhone SE as the device to record video along with an app devised by one of the authors, five cases of various neck surgeries (two submandibular gland resections, two neck dissections, one neck dissection and supraglottic laryngectomy) were recorded.
