Effect of head orthoses on skull deformities in positional plagiocephaly: Evaluation of a 3-dimensional approach

The positional non-synostotic plagiocephaly represents a cranial asymmetry affecting all 3 dimensions. The aim of this study was to evaluate volumetric indices to assess the efficiancy in improving non-synostotic cranial asymmetries in treatment with head orthoses.
