• Abstract: Accurate reconstruction of implanted knee models is crucial in orthopedic surgery and biomedical engineering, enhancing preoperative planning, optimizing implant design, and improving surgical outcomes. Traditional methods rely on labor-intensive and error-prone manual segmentation. This study proposes a novel approach using machine learning (ML) algorithms and morphing techniques for precise 3D reconstruction of implanted knee models. The methodology begins with acquiring preoperative imaging data, such as fluoroscopy or X-ray images of the patient's knee joint. A convolutional neural network (CNN) is then trained to automatically segment the femur contour of the implanted components, significantly reducing manual effort and ensuring high accuracy. Following segmentation, a morphing algorithm generates a personalized 3D model of the implanted knee joint, using the segmented data and biomechanical principles. This algorithm considers implant position, size, and orientation to simulate the knee joint's shape. By integrating morphological data with implant-specific parameters, the reconstructed models accurately reflect the patient's implant anatomy and configuration. The approach's effectiveness is demonstrated through quantitative evaluations, including comparisons with ground truth data and existing techniques. In 19 test cases involving various implant types, the ML-based segmentation method showed superior accuracy and consistency compared to manual segmentation, with an average RMS error of 0.58 +/- 0.14 mm. This research advances orthopedic surgery by providing a robust framework for the automated reconstruction of implanted knee models. Leveraging ML and morphing algorithms, clinicians and researchers gain valuable insights into patient-specific knee anatomy, implant biomechanics, and surgical planning, leading to improved patient outcomes and enhanced quality of care.

  This work presents a novel approach to monocular 6D pose estimation of surgical instruments in open surgery, addressing challenges such as object articulations, symmetries, and lack of annotated real-world data. The proposed approach consists of three main components: (1) synthetic data generation using 3D modeling of surgical tools with articulation rigging; (2) a tailored pose estimation framework combining object detection with pose estimation and a hybrid geometric fusion strategy; and (3) a training strategy that utilizes both synthetic and real unannotated data, employing domain adaptation on real video data using automatically generated pseudo-labels.
