頭蓋骨（ずがいこつ、とうがいこつ）は、頭の全体的な枠組みとしてはたらく、有頭動物の骨様構造である。頭蓋骨は、顔の構造を支持し、脳を外傷から保護する。一般的な読みとしては「ずがいこつ」「とうがいこつ」双方を用いるが、解剖学では「とうがいこつ」とのみ呼称、形質人類学では頭骨と表記して「とうこつ」と称し、「ずがいこつ」という読み方は学問的には用いられない。なお、医療の場では他に橈骨が存在するため、「とうこつ」と呼ぶことは稀である。英語ではskullまたはcranium、複数形craniaである。白骨化した頭蓋骨は髑髏（どくろ、されこうべ、しゃれこうべ）と呼ばれる。頭蓋骨に関する文化的な側面はそちらを参照の事。
