In March, we presented the first results of our research at the conference of the American Association of Biological Anthropologists (AABA) in Baltimore.
Using color filters in the MeshLab software, we were able to precisely measure the surface area of the temporomandibular joint on the mandibular condyle in three dimensions.
The proposed approach may also be useful for analyzing other articular surfaces.
Participation in the conference was supported by funding from the Excellence Initiative – Research University project (172/06/POB1/0013).
