In our chapter we are describing how to reconstruct three-dimensional anatomy from
medical image data and how to build Statistical 3D Shape Models out of many such …

The ShapeWorks software is an open-source implementation of a methodology for
constructing compact statistical point-based models of shape called Particle-Based …

In cases of osseous defects, knowledge of the anatomy, and its age and sex-related
variations, is essential for reconstruction of normal morphology. Here, we aimed at creating …

Background and objective Revealing the complexity behind subject-specific ankle joint
mechanics requires simultaneous analysis of three-dimensional bony and soft-tissue …

Cephalometric methods have been used to evaluate morphometric measurements of the
mandible and quantify sex-related anatomical features; however, most studies to date …

The objective of the study was to suggest a novel quantitative assessment of acetabular
bone defects based on a statistical shape model, validate the method, and present …

Purpose The reconstruction of large continuity defects of the mandible is a challenging task,
especially when the shape of the missing part is not known prior to operation. Today, the …

Custom implants are used to treat patients with large acetabular bone defects. To quantify
the bone defect and to initialize the implant design, a virtual anatomical reconstruction of the …

Objectives Estimating the sex of decomposed corpses and skeletal remains of unknown
individuals is one of the first steps in the identification process in forensic contexts. Although …

The aim of this study was to investigate the value of 3D Statistical Shape Modelling for
orthognathic surgery planning. The goal was to objectify shape variations in the orthognathic …
