Abstract:
Facial change is an important clinical manifestation of endocrine system diseases and genetic syndromes. The use of traditional photography and three-dimensional imaging techniques to collect patients’ facial images to analyze changes in patients’ face has become a hot topic. This article reviews the application of facial analysis in endocrine diseases, such as acromegaly, Cushing’s syndrome, hyperthyroidism, and genetic syndromes, and provide a new perspective for early diagnosis and prognosis of disease.
