Cranioencephalic Topography of Sulcus Centralis by MRI
Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Dental and Medical Sciences (IOSR-JDMS) - Year 2018, Vol 17, Issue 6
Abstract
Cranioencephalic topography is useful for the neurosurgeons to locate different structures on the skull surface. The aim of this study is to ascertain a simplified algorhitm to locate sulcus centralis. MATERIALS AND METHODS: we performed intrinsic cerebrometry and correlational cranio-cerebrometry on 228 RMN images, using CorelDraw 9 for image processing and IBM SPSS Statistics 20.0 for statistical analysis. RESULTS AND DISCUSSIONS data showed wide variation between absolute values, but constancy of relative values, with a slight, but distinct deviation of upper extremity of sulcus centralis towards occipital pole. In CONCLUSIONS, despite the fact that the only rigorous and definite way to locate projection of cortical sulci on calvaria external surface is medical imaging, we suggest an effective projection of upper extremity of sulcus centralis at a straight distance from Glabella representing 3/5 straight distance between Glabella and Inion.
