“…The radiography is not only simple to carry out but also the technology involved is easily comprehended and can be applied in situations when there are lack of personal expertise as well as when the required resources are scanty. 11,12 The importance and significance of skull for the purpose of personal recognition cannot be denied and thus the approach of employing skull as a tool in personal identification is being used by the anthropologists. Skull is a bony structure that is formed by the combination of 22 bones.…”

Objectives: To determine anatomical variability in morphometry of frontal air sinuses in male ethnic groups residing in Karachi. Study Design: Cross sectional descriptive study. Setting: Radiology Department of Jinnah Postgraduate Medical Center. Period: Nov 2018 to April 2019. Material & Methods: In total, the research subjects were 108. They were divided into four ethnic sub groups. Each ethnic subgroup had 27 members. The study subjects were in between 20 to 50 years of age with the mean age of 35.14 ± 8.68 years. Before the enrolment of the participants in the research, informed consent was taken. The methodology incorporated was X-ray radiography. The view for radiology was Water’s view. Area, height and width of both right and left frontal sinuses were measured by the help of Radiant DICOM digital software. A questionnaire was designed to record the demographic data. The parameters of area, height and width of the sinuses were noted in the proforma. The data was analyzed by the help of SPSS version 23.0. Results: The ethnic sub groups were compared by the application of One Way ANOVA. The comparison of the four ethnic groups showed high variability in terms of area, height and width of the right frontal air sinuses (p=0.000). Significant variations were also recorded for these parameters on the left side (p=0.000). Conclusion: The height width and area show pattern of anatomical variability in the right and left frontal air sinuses among the ethnic groups of males living in Karachi.

“…10 The superimposition techniques involving the structures of the human skulls have helped in identification of the deceased. 7 The anatomy of the paranasal sinuses can help the forensic anthropologists in human identification due to the peculiar characteristics which are unique to all the human beings. 10 The stronger bony identification tools can be identified by a simple and less expensive method called radiography.…”

Objective: To determine morphology and variation in dimensions of frontal air sinuses in male and female genders living in Karachi. Study Design and Setting: It was a cross sectional study and was conducted at Radiology Department, JPMC. Methodology: The total number of study participants were 216. The research subjects were divided into two equal groups of males and females each having 108 members. The mean age of the participants was calculated to be 35.14 ± 8.68 years. The study subjects were recruited from Radiology Department, JPMC, Karachi. After taking written informed consent, Water’s (occipito-mental) view radiography was done to measure the parameters of height, width and area of the frontal air sinuses. The included variables were the demographic data and the physical examination to exclude facial anomalies. All the measurements were recorded and the measurements were saved by the help of Radiant DICOM digital software. Results: The parameters of height, width and the area of frontal sinuses showed highly significant variability on both the right and the left sides. All the dimensions were highly significantly greater in the males as compared to the female study participants (p=0.000). The Independent-Samples T Test was applied to compare the two gender groups. Conclusion: The parameters of height, width and area of frontal sinuses were greater in the males as compared to the females on both the left and the right sides
