title: Craniosynostosis 1998: concepts and controversies.
abstract: The diagnosis of craniosynostosis requires attention to radiologic technique, familiarity with the signs of closure at each suture, and correlation with the clinical setting. Misdiagnosis may result in unwarranted calvarial or craniofacial surgery or a delay of surgery, necessitating a more extensive procedure.
