A Software Tool for a DTS-Based Imaging System Used in Intramedullary Nailing
نویسنده
چکیده
A case study based on both simulated and actual images was performed. The simulated anatomical phantom used was obtained from CT data of a human leg provided by the “Visible Human” project. A virtual orthopedic nail was added to the data set and projection images were obtained using a simulated irradiation procedure. An actual phantom made of wax having an orthopedic nail inserted was also imaged and projection images were acquired every 2° with an isocentric rotational fluoroscopic machine over a 180° arc, with SIID = 135cm, SID = 100 cm, pixel size = 1mm. Subsequently, these projection images were used for tomographic reconstructions and for the computation of the required drilling axis for intramedullary nailing.

Background & Aim: Most acute humeral shaft fractures can be successfully treated by conservative methods. Operation is recommended for certain fractures. Intramedullary nailing offers a dependable solution for the treatment of humeral shaft fractures, especially in polytrauma patients. The aim of this study was to evaluate intramedullary nailing outcomes and complications in humeral fractur...

Abstract Background: The tibial diaphyseal fractures are the most common type of long bone fractures encountered by most orthopedic surgeons. In accordance with descriptive indices of tibia fractures on the basis of their location in the bone, distal tibia fractures have the second incidence of all tibia fractures after the middle tibia fractures. The purpose of the study was to asses...
