Sex determination using direct photography technique : a mobile-phone camera : a digital approach for lip prints analysis in Malaysian Malay population (Klang Valley)

Cheiloscopy may not be as well-known as other techniques of identification, such as fingerprint or DNA analysis, but it has its own impact in the appropriate circumstances. Cheiloscopy has been recognized as an important tool for human identification. A manual approach of studying lip prints was uti...
