Image Analysis on Clavicle Bone for Indonesian Clavicle Implant Design

Abstract

Implant is a medical device created by humans and implanted in the human body to replace or enhance the biological structure in the human body. In this study, we performed an image analysis of the clavicle bone with the aim of estimating the latest clavicle implant design obtained for Indonesians. The data was collected from 6 computed tomography (CT) thorax data with a specific age range of 18-25 years old women patient. The data was loaded into three-digital (3D) multiplanar reconstruction, followed by segmentation process and measuring the predetermined parameter. After getting the numbers from several measurements, an approximation is made to be applied to the latest designs of clavicle implant. This study concludes that the image analysis using 3D Slicer and Radiant Viewer can give a specific number in the parameter of diameter, length, and curve that can be a recommendation for designing and manufacturing the clavicle implants based on the patient data.
