由于颅内参考线根据头部位置的多样性而变化，因此从美学角度对面部进行头影测量可能很困难且容易产生误导。自然头部位置（NHP）已经被提出作为用于评估面部形态的优选参考位置。尽管自然头位更合适、更有效，但由于耗时和附加和必要的复杂设备等原因，它仍然被放弃。因此，我们开发了一种改进的水平激光方法来获取自然的头部位置。这种方法是一种简单而直接的技术，可能是有价值的，并辅助常规正颌规划。(c)2008年英国口腔颌面外科医师协会。由爱思唯尔有限公司出版。保留所有权利。
The cephalometric measurement of the face in terms of aesthetics can be difficult and misleading due to the variability of the intra-cranial reference lines according to diversity of head Posture. Natural head position (NHP) has been proposed as a preferred reference position for assessing facial morphology. Even though natural head position is more proper and valid, it is still abandoned by reasons of time-consumption and additional and necessary complex equipment. Hence, we developed a modified level laser approach to acquire the natural head position. This method was a simple and straightforward technique which may be of value as and adjunct to routine orthognathic planning. (c) 2008 The British Association of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons.
