Datasets describing the morphometric evaluation of the adult rat mandible following growth stimulation of the condyle using ultrasound.

ABSTRACT: Evaluating morphological changes of the mandible due to the unique role of the condyle in mandibular special growth and remodeling pattern is challenging. This data describes a comprehensive evaluation using new techniques to detect morphological changes of the young adult rat mandibles treated by low intensity pulsed ultrasound (LIPUS) comparing to matching controls. Two-dimensional (2D) analysis was performed on digital photographs of the hemi-mandibles using AutoCAD software with high accuracy. The anatomical points which were more determinative and prone to visual illusion were defined with particularity. Selective combination of measurements was done to allow for a thorough morphometric evaluation of the mandible focusing on the condyle and the main direction of condylar and mandibula
