Abstract
A method for identifying a coronal suture on a cranium can include acquiring image data of craniums for a plurality of patients. A database can be created that includes spatial relationships of various craniometric landmarks of the plurality of patients sorted by a desired population characteristic. A region of interest can be established that is based on a variance of locations of the craniometric landmarks between the plurality of patients for the desired characteristic. A criteria search can be performed of acquired image data from a specific patient that is limited to only the region of interest to identify a coronal suture for that specific patient.
