Cranial measurement and head circumference
Cranial measurement is essential to monitor your baby’s neurological development during the first months of life and ensure that growth is progressing as expected.
Monitoring head circumference from birth helps detect possible changes in skull growth and prevent positional cranial deformities through proper follow-up, giving parents complete peace of mind and safety.
In this category you will find devices designed for reliable, safe and standardized cranial measurement of your baby’s head circumference. These tools are used by healthcare professionals and are also designed to make things easier for parents. Discover them!

Why is measuring head circumference important?
Head circumference is one of the main indicators of brain growth during childhood. Measuring it regularly helps confirm that skull development is progressing according to expected values based on the child’s age and sex.
In the case of a newborn’s head circumference, the first measurements are key to establishing an initial reference point. From there, follow-up measurements during medical check-ups help confirm whether growth continues within normal ranges or if deviations appear early.
During the first years of life—especially when measuring head circumference in children aged 0 to 5 years—results are compared with reference charts. This is known as the head circumference percentile, an essential tool in pediatrics and pediatric physiotherapy.
Thanks to these objective measurements, professionals can make informed clinical decisions. They also provide reassurance to families by confirming that the baby’s growth is progressing normally.
Achieve precise measurements with the Mimos® Craniometer and reference bands
To obtain reliable data in cranial measurements, it is essential to use tools specifically designed for this purpose. One example is the craniometer, a non-invasive device that provides accurate, reproducible and safe head circumference measurements.
The Mimos® Craniometer adapts to the baby’s anatomy, making correct placement easier and minimizing measurement errors. It is commonly used in the evaluation of positional cranial deformities such as plagiocephaly.
In addition, our elastic measurement bands are the perfect complement to ensure hygienic and precise measurements. As individual bands, latex-free and with a non-slip inner finish, they adapt gently to your baby’s head and ensure 100% consistent readings.
Monitor your child’s cranial growth at every stage
Monitoring skull growth is not limited to the first months of life. Long-term follow-up is very useful to observe development over time and detect any relevant changes.
Having reliable measurement devices such as the Mimos® Craniometer allows healthcare professionals to monitor a child’s development with clinical precision while also giving parents confidence and reassurance.
Because when you understand what you are measuring and why, everything becomes much more reassuring.
