“…Os métodos de identificação considerados primários são datiloscopia, registros odontológicos e análise de DNA. Porém, é importante destacar que métodos de identificação são comparativosé preciso haver um "suspeito", e um primeiro registro de determinada característica do mesmo, para poder compará-la com a mesma característica presente no corpo/esqueleto que se necessita identificar (Barros et al, 2022a;Gioster-Ramos et al, 2021;Interpol, 2018). A Odontologia Forense possui diversas técnicas que podem ser utilizadas em processos de identificação, como como queiloscopia, rugoscopia palatina, e histórico de radiografias/odontograma do paciente, entre outras.…”

Gender Determination Based on CBCT Maxillary Sinus Analysis: A Systematic Review

“…The initial search revealed 1719 relevant papers, with 1032 remaining after checking for manual duplicates. Following title and abstract screening, fifteen papers were identified for a full analysis based on the inclusion and exclusion criteria [12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26]. The articles included were published between 2015 and 2023, with the majority of publications occurring in 2020.…”

“…Five of the fifteen papers included in the qualitative synthesis reported data from Brazilian populations, four from Turkish populations, two from Indian populations, and one from Italian, Iranian and Indonesian populations. Finally, one paper reported data from Brazilian and Dutch populations [12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26].…”

“…The selected studies used only CBCT images to evaluate morphological and volumetric measurements of the maxillary sinus for human identification [12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26]. Of the fifteen articles identified, five reported data assessing only volumetric measurements of the maxillary sinus [11][12][13][14][15], seven reported data calculating only linear measurements of maxillary sinus [16][17][18][19][20][21][22], and three reported data by combining findings of both linear and volumetric measurements of the maxillary sinus [24][25][26]. It was impossible to conduct a meta-analysis since every study was evaluated individually and they were heterogeneous.…”

“…Three-dimensional data were registered using diverse types of software programs, e.g., Dolphin Imaging software (Dolphin Imaging and Management solution, Chatsworth, CA, USA) [12], a beta version of the DDS-Pro™ 2.12.0_2021 and 2.14.2_2022 software (DPP Systems, Czestochowa, Poland) [16,21], CS 3D Imaging Software 3.2.9 [18], Xoran software 3.1.62 version (Xoran Technologies, Ann Arbor, MI, USA) [24], iCAT Workstation Dental Imaging System software (XoranCatTM Technology Xoran Technologies) [20], MIMICS 21.0 software (Materialise HQ Technologielaan, Leuven, Belgium) [13], MIMICS 19.0 software [14], ITK-SNAP software (version 2.1.4) [15], Carestream 3D Imaging Software [18], NNT software (NNT, v 3.0; NewTom, Verona, Italy), SimPlant software (v 13.0: Materialize, Leuven, Belgium) [25], OnDemand 3D imaging software (v 3.5.7, Carestream Health Inc., Rochester, NY, USA), and ITK-SNAP software (version 3.8.0) [26], Instrumentarium Dental, Palo DEx Group Oy Nahkelantie 160 FI-04300 TUUSULA, Finland [22].…”
