ATD
Angle
| Angle
made by connecting the A, T, and D triradii points
The
lower T point is always used if there are more than one
~50
degrees is the mean
The
ATD changes as a person ages

Statistical Comparison of Pattern Types:
How many subjects
have Whorl formations on the thumb compared to the general population?
Etc.

Main
Line Index

Mathematical
formula showing degree of transversality
Track
lines from the A triradii point (the A Line) to a location
on outer edge of palm and add to number derived from D line
terminus.
A
Line terminates at 3
D
Line terminates at + 6
Main
Line Index = 9

Statistical Comparisons of the Thenar, Hypothenar;
Areas II, III, IV
| Does
Area II have a Loop or Whorl? Etc.
The
Hypothenar Eminence has Whorls in only 6 cases per thousand,
Thenar Whorls are even less common.
Certain
formations occur with greater frequency in particular cases,
for instance, the Composite Whorl (a subset of the Whorl)
(a subset of the Whorl) shows up in 18% of schizophrenic
hands. (26)
