In this article, we propose a novel method for the fast 3D reconstruction of real osteoarthritic (OA) holes in a human femoral cartilage. Initially, semi-automated Region-Based Segmentation (region-growing) and Bounding Box techniques are used to extract femoral cartilage slices from MRI scans of the knee. OA holes were detected and filled automatically by our contour interpolation/RBF (CI-RBF) method...
In this article, we propose a new method for the fast 3D reconstruction of simulated osteoarthritic holes in a human patella. Initially, clean patella slices were extracted from MRI scans of the knee using Region-Based Segmentation (region-growing) and Bounding Box techniques. Osteoarthritic (OA) holes were then simulated in the patella slices. Our contour interpolation/RBF (CI/RBF) method was then...
