Given the increasing incidence of deformational plagiocephaly due to infants' supine sleeping position to prevent sudden infant death syndrome, reliable anthropometric diagnostics are needed. Besides the traditional method of measuring landmarks with callipers, three-dimensional (3D) photography has great potential. In this investigation the accuracy of 3D photogrammetry is studied. ⋯ 3D photogrammetry is potentially a reliable tool for treatment planning and follow-up of abnormal head shapes in infancy.
