Abstract:Background We describe a novel computational method for assessing the fit of an osteochondral graft. We applied our software to five normal wrist computed tomography (CT) scans to determine the fit of the scaphoid to the lunate fossa of the distal radius. Methods CT scans of five wrists were digitally rendered. The capitate facet of the scaphoid was fit to the lunate fossa of the distal radius using custom software based on the iterative closest point (ICP) algorithm. This approach iteratively determines the o… Show more
