Abstract

In this paper, we present the methodology for determining the point model of the ilium bone in cases when volumetric data of the whole bone are not available. An extreme traumatic bone damage, osteoporosis, destruction of bone tissue by malignant bone tumors or the existence of only 2D medical image (X-ray) can be the reason for the lack of complete volumetric data. Points on the bone surface were defined at the curves that run through 26 previously defined parameters, at the edges of anteroposterior (A–P) and lateral projections and at the parts of the surface between some parameters. Those parts of the surface, enclosed by parameters, represent ten parametric regions. The values of coordinates, which represent the input data in the statistical program, were measured in a uniquely defined coordinate system. After establishing the correlations between the values of coordinates, 8869 different linear and nonlinear regression models were obtained. The prediction values for point coordinates were calculated and exported to a CAD program. Results obtained were tested on a randomly chosen male right ilium bone, applying the methodology for creating the prediction model using the method of parametric regions, which allows creating a complete polygonal model, for each region separately or just for some parts of the region. Results obtained in the form of regression equations for the right ilium bone can be applied to the left ilium bone. The results of the research were verified using a comparative deviation and distance analysis between the initial and obtained polygonal models.

Notes

  1. Total number of equations decreased by 8 from 8877, because the number of equations for Y and Z coordinates was lower than the number of equations for X coordinates due to the fact that regression models for point 3 were calculated in the equations for parameters d1, d3, d13 and d16, whose Y and Z coordinates equaled 0.
