A New Measurement Technique of the Characteristics of Nutrient Artery Canals in Tibias Using Materialise’s Interactive Medical Image Control System Software

Abstract: We established a novel measurement technique to evaluate the anatomic information of nutrient artery canals using Mimics (Materialise's Interactive Medical Image Control System) software, which will provide full knowledge of nutrient artery canals to assist in the diagnosis of longitudinal fractures of tibia and choosing an optimal therapy. Here we collected Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine (DICOM) format of 199 patients hospitalized in our hospital. All three-dimensional models of tibia in Mimic… Show more

“…In addition to the TNAC relevance in the context of fracture healing and placement of fixation devices, our results could aid in evaluating longitudinal tibial stress fractures [8,14]. Most longitudinal stress fractures of the tibia (LSFT) nucleate proximally with a transverse or oblique course.…”

“…Future 3D measurement of the talus on the pathologic/ injured side may require the use of mirrored reconstruction images from articulations of the surrounding bones, such as the tibial plafond, navicular bone, and calcaneal facets to develop a more anatomically morphometric geometric template for further reconstruction or manufacturing than the conventionally manual measurement on two dimensional images. Similarly, CT images are extremely consistent and can be easily reconstructed to 3D model through computer software [31]. It is also important to do measurement of talar dome of the same side when aiming to design more anatomical ankle implant [32].…”

“…In this study objective and subjective analysis was done. Mimics software provide accurate analysis, simulation and modeling based on the DICOM files of the computed tomographic (CT) images and cost-efficient [24,25,26]. The pre and postoperative CT scans DICOM files were retrieved and the soft tissue model for the midface was reconstructed by Mimics10 software (Materialise NV, Inc, Leuven, Belgium).…”
