Abstract:
The pelvis,as a critical structure connecting the spine and lower limbs,not only supports the upper body but also plays a vital role in lower limb movement and force transmission.Its complex morphology and functionality have long been a focus of research.However,the significant individual variations in pelvic morphology present challenges in studying the relationship between shape and function.Statistical shape model(SSM),as an effective method for quantifying and describing morphological variations,has become a key tool in exploring the morphology-function relationship of the pelvis.This review summarizes recent advances in the application of SSM to the study of pelvic morphology and biomechanics,highlighting its role in uncovering morphological features and their impacts on biomechanics,and discusses future development directions.Through a comprehensive analysis of existing literature,this study aims to provide valuable insights and guidance for clinicians,biomechanics researchers,and medical device designers.
