Geometric Modelling of the Human Cornea: A New Approach for the Study of Corneal Ectatic Disease. A Pilot Investigation [PDF]

open access: green, 2017
The aim of this study was to describe the application of a new bioengineering graphical technique based on geometric custom modelling capable to detect and to discriminate small variations in the morphology of the corneal surface. A virtual 3D solid custom model of the cornea was obtained employing Computer Aided Geometric Design tools, using raw data ...
