测颅仪不是在真空中发明的。这是艺术家、人类学家和科学家几个世纪以来努力探索自然变迁的结果。文艺复兴时期的研究者将人脸“笼”在一系列网格中，试图找到比例关系，而20世纪的心理学家更感兴趣的是牙齿和颌骨与面部和颅底的关系。头影测量仪最初是一种研究工具，后来成为揭示患者整个发育模式的一种手段，成为自研究模型以来我们最重要的诊断工具。
The cephalometer was not invented in a vacuum. It was the culmination of centuries of efforts on the part of artists, anthropologists, and scientists to fathom nature's vicissitudes. Whereas Renaissance investigators '' caged '' the human face in a series of grids in an effort to find proportional relations, 20th-century orthodontists were more interested in knowing how the teeth and jaws related to the face and cranial base. Primarily a research tool, the cephalometer became a means of unmasking a patient's whole developmental pattern, becoming our most important diagnostic tool since study models.
