Abstract
- In orthopedic surgeries, such as osteotomy and osteosynthesis, an intraoperative 3D reconstruction of the bone would enable surgeons to quickly assess the fracture reduction procedure with preoperative planning. Scanners equipped with such functionality are often more expensive than a conventional C-arm fluoroscopy device. Moreover, a C-arm fluoroscopy device is commonly available in many orthopedic facilities. Based on the widespread use of such equipment, this paper proposes a method to reconstruct the 3D structure of bone with a conventional C-arm fluoroscopy device. We focus on wrist bones as the target of reconstruction in this research as this will facilitate a flexible imaging scheme. Planar markers are attached to the target object and are tracked in the fluoroscopic image for C-arm pose estimation. The initial calibration of the device is conducted using a checkerboard pattern. In general, reconstruction algorithms are sensitive to geometric calibration errors. To assess the practicality of the method for reconstruction, a simulation study demonstrating the effect of checkerboard thickness and spherical marker size on reconstruction quality was conducted.
