This paper presents a method based on geometry for three-dimensional (3D) face reconstruction without the need for additional images, hardware components, or objects. In our proposed method, we consider part of the nose as the feature region because its shape remains almost constant during the measurement. The geometry of this region was used to provide cues for phase unwrapping. We first spatially unwrap the phase and determine the integer multiple of 2 to be added by comparing the recovered result of the feature region and its actual shape. Then, the face can be reconstructed with the acquired absolute phase. Experimental results demonstrated that our method is capable of reconstructing a dynamic face with high measurement speed, and only three phase-shifted fringes are required per frame.

Craniofacial syndromes present with exorbitism and airway obstruction as a result of upper and middle facial hypoplasia. Classical subcranial Lefort III (LF III) or monobloc distraction osteogenesis (DO) using an external craniofacial device is used to treat these deformities. These procedures are done during mixed dentition, in most cases, advancing an abnormal face, to a more normal position.

Background: Research subjects can potentially be re-identified from de-identified MRI, CT, and PET brain scans with up to 98% accuracy using Microsoft Azure's cloud-based commercial facial recognition software. This showed the need to "de-face" publicly shared research brain scans. Subsequently, Microsoft has begun restricting its face recognition services, intending to prevent misuse.

Background: Alzheimer's disease (AD) is an age-dependent neurodegenerative disorder with limited treatment options. As it progresses, synapse degeneration is the most important feature contributing to cognitive dysfunction. Mitochondria supply synapses with ATP for neurotransmitter release and vesicle recycling and buffer calcium concentrations.

Background: Recently, autologous cultured fibroblast and platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapies have been attempted for skin rejuvenation. Unlike PRP, grafted fibroblasts not only produce connective tissue but also influence the surrounding environment through a paracrine effect. Fibroblast-derived cytokines interact with and are modulated by neighboring tissue-constituting cells.
