Estimation of sex using morphometric measurements performed on cranial computerized tomography scans

Distance Parameter Values of Calcaneus and their Performance for Gender Estimation

“…The data obtained by Amuti et al (2020) have lower values than the data in the present study (2). Cekdemir et al reported statistically significant differences between the genders in this length in their study in which they aimed to predict gender from the calcaneus (p<0.001) (8). These data are consistent with the results of the present study (p<0.001) (Table 8).…”

“…However, he stated that length and width measurements of the calcaneus were more accurate than height measurements. In another study performed on computed tomography images in the Turkish population, Cekdemir et al (2021) reported the accuracy of maxCaL as 0.911 and CaAFH as 0.878 (8).…”

“…In the identification process, the age, race, and gender of the person are important. Therefore, knowing the gender of the person is quite important in terms of reducing the result set in the identification process (7,8).…”

“…Although the identification by DNA analysis is highly accurate, it is not practical to use this method in complex cases with a large number of cases due to its cost and time-consuming nature (8,9). Although the pelvis and skull bones used to estimate gender from bone have a high accuracy rate, other bones can be used in case of deterioration and fragmentation (10).…”

The use of crista galli morphology and morphometry in sex determination: a cone-beam computed tomography study

“…In the literature, there are several studies regarding sex determination using different anatomical structures in the cranaium [7,12,27]. Besides, there is only one study regarding the association between the morphological and morphometric features of CG and sex [16].…”
