Abstract

The article presents the study on the use of two-dimensional (2D) ultrasound enhanced with the three-dimensional (3D) reverse-face view on detecting lip, alveolar ridge, and hard palate abnormalities. It states that cleft lip or palate is a non-lethal congenital abnormality that result from the failure of fusion of facial processes. It says that ultrasound can achieve prenatal detection of orofacial clefting. It adds that 2D and 3D imaging can be used on the assessment of facial clefts.
