Reconstruction 3D des structures anatomiques des membres inférieurs 3D reconstruction of the lower limb anatomical structures

In this article, we are interested in the modelling of the lower limb anatomical structures such as bones, muscles and tendons. The proposed method starts with an MRI acquisition during which the lower limb of a subject is scanned. 3D models are generated after a manual segmentation of the anatomical structures. However, the surface of the generated models appears not to be smooth. Furthermore, the models are not attached whereas they should be anatomically. We therefore describe the various steps to force the models to be anatomically correct and we discuss their validation. The aim of this method is to reuse these models in automatic segmentation methods.
