Skull Normal Sutures

Computed Tomography (CT) scan with 3D surface-rendered reconstructions. Vertex and Lateral view.

Sutures and Fontanels

  • a - Metopic suture
  • b - coronal sutures
  • c - sagittal suture
  • d - lambdoid suture
  • e - squamosal suture
  • f - anterior fontanel
  • g - posterior fontanel
  • h - sphenoidal fontanel
  • i - mastoid fontanel

Lateral view

  • Cranial vault bones usually ossify from the center to periphery, which results in this “widened” appearance of the sutures in the newborn.
