Abstract:
BACKGROUND: With the improvement of medical imaging technology, the visualization of human anatomy has been further developed; the role of three-dimensional (3D) reconstruction in medical treatment is also becoming increasingly prominent. Mimics is the most widely used medical image reconstruction software. Arigin 3D Pro is a recently developed 3D reconstructed medical software system based on 3D printing. OBJECTIVE: To study the accuracy of 3D reconstruction models obtained by using Arigin 3D Pro and Mimics with medical images. METHODS: The image data of liver, spine, knee joint and heart were selected, and the deviations of two software reconstruction models were analyzed based on the 3D model reconstructed by Mimics. Totally 10 cases of skull and 1 case of femoral comminuted fracture image data were selected and reconstructed. Each reconstruction model was measured with 10 groups of feature sizes to evaluate the differences between the two software programs. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Arigin 3D Pro and Mimics were used to reconstruct the liver, spine, knee and heart data. The mean ± standard deviation of model deviations were (0.93 ± 1.05), (0.36 ± 0.74), (0.45 ± 0.74), (0.18 ± 0.41) mm. It took 3 minutes and 35 minutes for Arigin 3D Pro and Mimics to reconstruct the liver model respectively, and both software reconstructed other models for less than 1 minute. There was no statistically significant difference between the feature sizes of the two software for the 3D reconstruction models of skull and femoral comminuted fracture data (P > 0.05). The 3D reconstruction model of Arigin 3D Pro is comparable to that of Mimics. For the liver model, the reconstructed time of Arigin 3D Pro is significantly shorter than that of Mimics.
