Abstract:
OBJECTIVE:To explore the methods for sex determination on head CT film.
METHODS:To establish the sex determination equations by binary regression analysis of cranial skeletal indices obtained on head CT film.
RESULTS:A single element equation by applying the index of the width of ansa capitis and a multi-element equation by applying multitude indices were established.
CONCLUSION:The equations for sex determination on head CT film were established.
