This paper presents a non-rigid free-from 2D–3D registration approach using a B-spline-
based statistical deformation model (SDM). In our approach the B-spline-based SDM is first …

Background The purpose of this study is to clarify interobserver and intraobserver
reliabilities of the three-dimensional (3D) templating of total hip arthroplasty (THA). Methods …

Purpose Accurate preoperative planning is crucial for the outcome of total hip arthroplasty.
Recently, 2D pelvic X-ray radiographs have been replaced by 3D CT. However, CT suffers …

Background The aim of this study is to present and evaluate surgical resection and
reconstructive techniques using autologous femoral head bone-grafting in treating partial …

Purpose To present a clinical validation of a novel technology called “3X” which allows for
3D prosthesis planning and treatment evaluation in total knee arthroplasty (TKA) using only …

The applications of X-ray imaging are pervasive, both pre-operatively and intra-operatively.
Pre-operative planning based on information about the patient anatomy provided by …

Abstract Two-dimensional (2D) radiographs are widely used for diagnosis, treatment
planning, and follow-up in orthopedics. The images depict bone at high contrast to …

in most cases. Subsequently, measurements of the pelvis were obtained via MRI to evaluate
the estimated pelvis shape. The results indicate that individual adaptation leads to muscle …

Using image processing to assist in the diagnostic of diseases is a growing challenge.
Segmentation is one of the relevant stages in image processing. We present a strategy of …

This chapter introduces both a statistically shaped model (SSM)-based surface model
reconstruction method and an atlas-based intensity volume reconstruction method under the …
