Abstract
This paper describes a new computer simulation approach in which the CT data of a dysmorphic individual affected by a particular nonsyndromic craniosynostosis is transformed into a normal shape. In this approach, the computer simulation determines the optimal way to elastically deform the 3D shape of the patient's CT data into the CT data of a normal target or atlas. This transformation provides the correspondence between each point in the dysmorphic anatomy and the normal anatomy of the atlas and provides a measure of the location, direction, and magnitude of the shape deviation from the normal shape of the atlas.
