最近的研究表明，儿童畸形斜头畸形和短头畸形的发生率有所增加。这一增长与为减少婴儿猝死综合症（SIDS）风险而开展的“恢复睡眠”运动相吻合。然而，对这两种情况的严重程度还没有一个客观的量化。大多数诊断都是基于主观因素，如患者病史和医生检查。客观量化的存在将有助于诊断和干预措施领域的研究，并为发现形状严重程度与认知结果之间的相关性提供工具。本文介绍了一种变形型斜头畸形和短头畸形的形状严重性量化和定位新方法。我们的结果表明，新的形状严重程度测量与人类专家输入的分数之间存在正相关关系。
Recent studies have shown an increase in the occurrence of deformational plagiocephaly and brachycephaly in children. This increase has coincided with the "Back to Sleep" campaign that was introduced to reduce the risk of Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS). However, there has yet to be an objective quantification of the degree of severity for these two conditions. Most diagnoses are done on subjective factors such as patient history and physician examination. The existence of an objective quantification would help research in areas of diagnosis and intervention measures, as well as provide a tool for finding correlation between the shape severity and cognitive outcome. This paper describes a new shape severity quantification and localization method for deformational plagiocephaly and brachycephaly. Our results show that there is a positive correlation between the new shape severity measure and the scores entered by a human expert.
