Biostereometric Analysis in Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery. A One-step, On-line Technique

Biostereometry is the measurement of living things (especially the human body) in 3 dimensions. Moire topography provides a simple, one-step method for mapping contours of the face, or other parts of the body--a method which has potential value for the plastic surgeon. A prospective study of the value and the uses of this method is now under way at our institution.
