Abstract

The femur shape reconstruction from a limited number of 2D X-ray images is a challenging task but it is desired as it lowers both the acquisition costs and the radiation dose. The aim of this paper is to use a small number of 2D X-ray images to reconstruct a 3D proximal femur surface without any prior acknowledge of the shape model. The proposed method combines a 2D binary contour points coordinates and their normals to find the best matching between 2D point pairs. The obtained results are promising. The estimated error shows that it is possible to rebuild the proximal femur shape from a limited number of radiographs.
