Abstract:
Objective To design an image processing system for skeletal measurement of arch,calcaneus and knee joint.Methods The image processing system had its hardware part composed of an image acquisition system,a body mass measurement system and a height measurement system.The image acquisition system consisted of an arch image acquisition module,a calcaneus image acquisition modue and a knee joint image acquisition module;the height measurement system included mainly a height meter component with a mechanically retractable structure;the body mass measurement system used CZL902 sensor combined with the hardware architecture to determine the body mass.The software system of the image processing system was developed with C#language and the application program interface was constructed by combining WinForm technique.Thirty-two healthy children and adult volunteers without significant foot or knee disease were recruited to assess the reliability and validity of the system by means of the consistency testing method.Results The system developed gained high reliability in the reliability and validity of the data on arch,calcaneus and knee joint(intragroup coefficient>0.75,P<0.05),and all the indexes except ankle sapcing width had higher intra-and inter-tester reliablity for the child volunteers than for the adult ones.Conclusion The system developed with high convenience and accuracy can be used for skeletal measurement of arch,calcaneus and knee joint.[Chinese Medical Equipment Journal,2025,46(10):36-40]
