METHOD FOR CALCULATING CORRECTION TARGET SKULL SHAPE

To provide a method for calculating an oblique head and/or short head correction target skull shape, the method enabling creation of a skull deformation correction helmet optimal for being applied to an individual patient depending on the degree of oblique head and/or short head.SOLUTION: On the basis of three-dimensional scan data showing a patient's skull shape, oblique head and/or short head ideal correction data for ideally correcting an oblique head and/or short head is created. Furthermore, an oblique head and/or short head correction ratio is designated depending on the degree of oblique head and/or short head. On the basis of the oblique head and/or short head ideal correction data and the oblique head and/or short head correction ratio, oblique head and/or short head correction target data showing an oblique head and/or short head correction target skull shape is created.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 2 【課題】 斜頭及び／又は短頭の度合に応じて個々の患者に適用するのに最適な頭蓋変形矯正ヘルメットの作成を可能にする、斜頭及び／又は短頭矯正目標頭蓋形状を求めるための方法を提供する【解決手段】患者の頭蓋形状を示す三次元スキャンデータに基いて斜頭及び／又は短頭を理想的に矯正するための斜頭及び／又は短頭理想矯正データを生成する。更に、斜頭及び／又は短頭の度合に応じて斜頭及び／又は短頭矯正率を指定し、斜頭及び／又は短頭理想矯正データと斜頭及び／又は短頭矯正率とに基いて斜頭及び／又は短頭矯正目標頭蓋形状を示す斜頭及び／又は短頭矯正目標データを生成する。【選択図】 図２
