Forensic identification is the means to highlight the unique characteristics of an entity and differentiate it from any other. The term identity derives from the Latin word "idem" meaning "same" or "identical". The identification of persons (living or deceased) is a process that is ideally achieved through the interdisciplinary collaboration of forensic medicine with the anthropologist, criminologist and judicial police. Gender estimation is a topic of great interest in forensic medicine, and numerous studies in the field have given rise to a database of diagnostic traits. The purpose of this paper is to demonstrate the reality of sexual dysmorphism based on anthropometric measurements of the orbit and to reinforce the importance of radiology in forensic practice. The study consists in 27 computed-tomography images on which we made some measurements of orbits cavities, after which a statistical analysis was performed. Following the measurements, a comparison was made between the values obtained for males and those obtained for females, confirming the hypothesis supported by many authors that these values are generally higher in men, thus helping identify unknown persons. The development of newer and better methodologies for gender estimation, as well as the reevaluation of existing ones, will continue to emerge, and the efforts of forensic researchers will lead to much more accurate results from indirect analyses of human bone structures through digital imaging.
