Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
1: correct identification of the mimic muscles would be considered to be possible if the average volume of mimic muscle measured on MRI images by three different investigators at three different times differ less than twenty percent.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
2: correct standardization of the positions of the mimic muscles is considered to be possible if the average XYZ-coordinates, representing the origo and insertion of a mimic muscle, determined by three different investigators at three different times differ less than twenty percent. 3: correct superimposition is considered to be possible if the MRI images correspond with the images on the 3D photograph. 4: the movement of the face in centimetres when changing facial expressions. A change is defined as a deviation in position based on a XYZ-coordinate system. 5: the time in minutes a facial expression can be hold unchanged. A change is defined as a deviation in position on a XYZ-coordinate system of more than twenty percent. The computer program 3DMD Vultus can be used to analyse three-dimensional images from MRI and 3D photographs. Identified anatomical landmarks will be registered as coordinates in a XYZ-coordinate system. Changes in corresponding coordinates can indicate a change in for example a position of a muscle or an ability to create facial expressions. A change in the direction of the X-axis corresponds with a movement in a horizontal direction, a change in the direction of the Y-axis corresponds with a movement in a vertical direction and a change in the direction of the Z-axis corresponds with a movement in ventro-dorsal direction. The computer program can also be used to analyse differences between images by superimposition.
