Scaling Methods of the Pelvis without Distortion for the Analysis of Bone Defects

description For the development of new types of hip implants for acetabulum revision, it is beneficial to analyse the acetabular defects of the indication group in advance. In order to be able to specially compare the bone defects with each other, a normalisation and accompanying scaling of the pelvis is necessary. Uniform scaling is required so that the bone structures are not distorted. In the following study, three scaling methods based on the minimal bounding box and sphere principle are compared with a method using 14 landmarks on the pelvis.The landmark method is applied to determine the true scaling factor. For the comparison of the different methods, 40 female pelvic models with an acetabular defect are analysed. In the comparison of the scaling methods, the method using minimal bounding spheres shows the least deviation from the landmark method (mean difference 3.30 ± 2.17 %). Due to the fact that no preprocessing (definition of the landmarks) is required and the fast implementation of the algorithm, the minimal bounding sphere is to be preferred to the landmark method for a fast size estimation.
