Cephalography

Cephalography is a research method that is used to diagnose and treat diseases of the head and neck. It is based on an analysis of the shape and size of the skull, as well as an assessment of its structure and condition.

Cephalography is one of the most ancient research methods in medicine. Even in ancient times, people noticed that the shape of the skull could be associated with various diseases. For example, people with prominent foreheads are more likely to have mental health problems, while those with narrower skulls may have breathing problems.

Today, cephalography is used to diagnose various diseases of the head and neck, such as trauma, tumors, infections, developmental disorders, etc. It can also help diagnose congenital abnormalities such as hydrocephalus or anencephaly.

One of the advantages of cephalography is its non-invasiveness. The examination is performed without the need for surgery or insertion of any instruments into the skull. This avoids complications associated with such procedures.

However, cephalography has its limitations. For example, it may not be accurate in diagnosing some diseases, such as brain tumors, which may be deep in the brain. In addition, cephalography cannot be used to diagnose diseases associated with changes in the soft tissues of the head, such as bruises or sprains.

Overall, cephalography is an important examination method for diagnosing head and neck diseases and can help doctors determine an accurate diagnosis and prescribe the correct treatment.

Chapterography is a set of various techniques (image methods) related to medical diagnostics. The technique is used only as part of a diagnostic search or a reference method for diagnosing a patient’s disease or condition, either independently or in combination with other research methods. Each of the methods, which is an integral part of the chapter, is based on an objective understanding of changes in human anatomical structures. Thanks to this technique, it is possible to identify the initial stage of the disease, find out at what stage it develops or whether it has other symptoms. Images in chapterography can be presented in black and white color or x-ray, but the essence of studying the image is the same.

The diagnostic approach used in the chapter is a detailed high-quality image of a specific part of the body in its various projections. The image is subject to detailed study using optical devices: microscope, magnifying glass,
