Reference Lines Angle Difference to the ACPC Line SD
TS-EOP line 0.0° ±4.0°
TS-IOP line 0.8° ±3.2°
OML −12.6° ±4.2°

Note:—ACPC indicates anterior/posterior commissure; TS-EOP, tuberculum sellae and external occipital protuberance; TS-IOP, tuberculum sellae and internal occipital protuberance; OML, orbitomeatal line.
