The field of embryology has experienced a period of explosive
growth since the previous edition of this book was published nearly
a decade ago. The insights of genetic expression in determining the
unfolding of the embryonic layers have revolutionised our
understanding of some of the mechanisms of embryogenesis. As
implied by the title of the new edition, Craniofacial
Embryogenetics and Development, genetics is linked with embryology
in this text. Virtually all embryological development has an
underlying genetic component, and the basic science of genetics is
the key in uncovering the many mysteries of embryogenesis. The
tools of molecular genetics have provided insights into
developmental mechanisms that allow us the ability to identify
transient regions of genetic expression patterns. Unraveling the
precise biochemical and mechanical interactions of discrete regions
in the unfolding embryonic components remains a dauntingly-complex
challenge to understanding the conversion of the genome into the
phenome. The addition of genetic information gleaned from other
mammalian species might aid in dissecting human embryology into
comprehensible components to understand normal and abnormal
development. This new edition is dedicated to this objective and
will prove invaluable to plastic and orofacial surgeons,
otolaryngologists, orthodontists, neonatal pediatricians, speech
pathologists, teratologists, embryologists, and anatomists. Key
Features: Provides clinicians with a basic background for assessing
and treating craniofacial anomalies. Describes recent technical
advances in optical projection tomography, photoacoustic and 3D
imaging, small-angle X-ray scattered (SAXS) tomography and
morphometrics and their impact on embryogenetics.
