Background: The newborn skull is normally comprised of seven bones. The anatomy of the
pediatric skull is a challenge, and the stages of its evolution are not easily recalled by …

Objective: To evaluate the complexity of human sagittal suture patterns and to investigate
whether the suture complexity correlates with age. Design: Geometric patterns of the sagittal …

The aim of this study was to determine the postnatal chronological age of central and
posterior skull base suture closure using computed tomography. The central and posterior …

Objective: To investigate the degree of fusion (patency) among cranial sutures in human dry
skulls in the Anatolia. Methods: One-hundred fifty-eight human dry skulls that were accepted …

Objective The purpose of this study was to elucidate the anatomical development of
physiologic suture closure processes in infants using three dimensional reconstructed …

Purpose: It is known from both anatomic and radiographic studies that the majority of cranial
sutures begin fusing in early adulthood and are fused by late adulthood. However, most of …

Background Cranial US allows for the evaluation of premature closure (synostosis) or
abnormal widening of the cranial sutures. An understanding of the normal anatomy is …

Purpose The efficacy of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for evaluating sutures has not
been well studied. CT with 3-dimensional reformats is currently the preferred modality for …

Background: The cranial sutures are the fibrous tissues uniting the skull bones as they
approximate one another during development. The coronal, sagittal and lambdoid sutures …
