Abstract:Purpose The talar bone plays a crucial role in ankle biomechanics and stability. Understanding the shape variability of the talar bone within specific populations is essential for various clinical applications. In this study, we aimed to investigate the mean shape and principal variability of the human talar bone in the Chinese population using statistical shape modeling (SSM). Methods CT scans of 214 tali were included to create SSM models. Principal component analysis was used to describe shape variation amo… Show more
