Abstract
The Facial Esthetics Engineering group (Prof. DDr. Kurt Schicho) at the Department of Cranio-Maxillofacial and Oral Surgery (Head: Prof. DDr. Emeka Nkenke) is an interdisciplinary team of physicians, IT-specialists and mathematicians, focusing their work on the integration of innovative technologies from image guided surgery in clinical routine. Newest projects aim at the combination of rapid prototyping techniques and soft-tissue predicition in cranio-maxillofacial surgery, including quantification of the surgical outcome by means of photogrammetry, surface based prosthetics in computer assisted dental implantology and is now being extended to comprise also the combination of photogrammetry with trichogrammetry/trichodensitometry in order to optimize hair transplant surgery.
