Abstract:

Objective To explore the application effect of 3D imaging technology in the measurement and evaluation of
rhinoplasty. Methods Before operation, facial images of beauty seekers were collected by 3D scanner and three-dimensional
imaging was performed. The surgical plan was formulated by 3D design scheme and measurement data, and the intraoperative
prosthesis carving was guided and the operation was completed. The 3D measurement was performed again during the operation
to ensure that the immediate postoperative effect was highly consistent with the preoperative design effect. 3D measurements
were taken again 1 to 6 months after operation. Seven aesthetic landmarks were selected, and the intraoperative and postoperative
3D scanning data were compared with the preoperative 3D simulation data, and statistical analysis was carried out. Results
A total of 31 cases of cosmetic rhinoplasty were selected in this group, of which 30 cases were satisfied with the postoperative
results, and 1 case had implant deflection after operation, and the result was satisfied after the second stage of surgical repair.
By analyzing the sample confidence level of the data of 7 aesthetic landmarks in the nose, the error range between the sample
statistical value and the overall parameter value was obtained, which was used to judge the degree of coincidence between the
intraoperative, postoperative effects and the preoperative simulation effects, that is, the eligibility criteria. The intraoperative
and postoperative monitoring data of all cases were within the error range of the confidence level of the sample statistics, which
met the standard of preoperative simulation effect. Conclusion The application of 3D scanning technology in surgery ensures
that the postoperative effect is consistent with the preoperative simulation effect, which is very effective for the quality control of
rhinoplasty.
