Figure Lengend Snippet: 3D landmark configuration for the total facial skeleton of pre-surgery, post-surgery, and control, plotted using the clinically derived midline (CM) method (original configuration in red, reflected configuration in blue). a , c Pre-surgery asymmetry at the mandible midline, mandible bilateral, chin, and ramus region compared to controls; a , b substantial correction of mandibular asymmetry post-operatively, specifically at the mandible midline and chin region, compared to pre-surgery; b , c Post-surgery results not comparable to controls
Article Snippet: For each individual, the comma-separated value files (.CSV file) of the 3D landmark coordinates including the coordinates (Nasion and Sella) for generating the “clinically derived midline” were imported to “ MATLAB ” (The MathWorks, Inc., USA).
