The planning system for breast augmentation with implant pocket region indices

摘要

This study is to establish an optimal implant pocket region indices module, for preoperative planning and postoperative diagnosis of a female breast augmentation surgery. This optimal module converts the breast configuration indicator consisting of breast implant pocket region indices. Due to the preoperative planning for breast implant surgery is depending on breast cup and implant pocket size with extend region of major pectoralis. This study offers a full size 3D breast surface image with relative parameters let surgeon accomplish the pre-surgery planning more accuracy. In addition, the module derived from the proposed computer-aided breast pocket region indicator could be of great use as a tool of communication between patients and surgeons.
