COMPUTER-AIDED PLANNING OF CRANIOMAXILLOFACIAL AND ORTHOPEDIC SURGERY

摘要

A procedure for computer-aided planning of craniomaxillofacial (CMF) and orthopedic surgery and scheme for generating a restored skull or pelvis model from a patient's fractured skull or pelvis model for computer-aided surgery planning are provided. In one embodiment, an algorithm for generating a restored model from a patient's deformed model by bone repositioning is presented along with a computer aided procedure for assisting a surgeon in deriving a CMF or orthopedic surgery plan.
