Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the efficacy and clinical feasibility of the computer-assisted full plan- ning system for tibial fracture treatment with intramedullary nailing.Methods After analyzing the functional structure and operative procedures of the system,nine plastic tibia and 12 cadaver lower limbs were used for image mosaicing based on C-arm (PHILIPS BV Libra) fluoroscopic images in the operation room to assess the correctness of the mosaicing and planning algorithms.The plastic tibial model was used for analysis of the mosaicing precision.The cadaver tibial bone was used for reduction experiment with the reduction mechanism to analyze the operation feasi- bility.Results Only 7 to 10 [fluoroscopy time:(19.75?0.61)s] valid C-ann projection images were needed to produce a long bone panorama of the lower limb.The total time for image acquisition and mosaicing was within (4.17?0.86)minutes and the mosaicing precision in the plastic tibial model was (1.26?0.76)mm.The opera- tion of the reduction mechanism was very simple and could be controlled by a surgeon automatically or free of hand. An integrated reduction strategy could be produced for rough positioning in general and elaborate operations in de- tails.Conclusion The computer-assisted full planning system can be used for anatomical analysis based on the C-arm panorama,full surgical planning,virtual simulation,selection of proper intramedullary nails and fracture reduction in treatment of long bone fractures.
