Summary: We show that the Hessian map of quartic plane curves is a birational morphism onto its image, thus bringing new evidence for a very interesting conjecture of Ciro Ciliberto and Giorgio Ottaviani. Our new approach also yields a simpler proof of the similar property for cubic surfaces, which is already known by the work of these two authors.
