RSIP Vision launched advanced AI based technology for the 3D reconstruction of knees from X-ray images.
The novel technology features include fastening physician’s workflow, reducing the need for high-cost and high-radiation currently used methods and allowing Physicians with a rich 3D modelling of each bone which further helps in surgery planning and implants fittings. Doctors can easily plan the implants that best fits the patient with the help of this 3D modelling.
Traditional x-rays are extensively available and cheaper than CT or MRI scanners, exposing patients to less radiation. On comparison, 3D model provides better results than that of CT scanin implant fittings.
X-rays can present only 2D images resulting from the summation of the 3D rays through the anatomical objects. Doctors usually suggest X-rays to get a rough idea of 3D anatomical structure. Hence, new technology developed by RSIP Vision generates a 3D model of the knee joint from two X-ray images of AP and lateral views.
The new technology makes use of deep neural network to create a rich 3D modelling of each bone with low-cost, widely available and low-radiation imaging modality.
