Özet

Background: Prediction of the nose from the skull remains an important issue in forensic facial approximation. In 2010, Rynn et al. published a method of predicting nose projection from the skull. With this method, three craniometric measurements (x, y, z) are taken, and these are then used in regression formulae to estimate the nasal dimensions.
