Geometric variation of the human tibia-fibula: a public dataset of tibia-fibula surface meshes and statistical shape model [PDF]
PeerJ, 2023 Background Variation in tibia geometry is a risk factor for tibial stress fractures. Geometric variability in bones is often quantified using statistical shape modelling. Statistical shape models (SSM) offer a method to assess three-dimensional variation

A three-dimensional statistical shape model of the growing mandible [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2021 Mandibular growth and morphology are important topics in the field of oral and maxillofacial surgery. For diagnostic and planning purposes, a normative database or statistical shape model of the growing mandible can be of great benefit.

Predicting Knee Joint Instability Using a Tibio-Femoral Statistical Shape Model [PDF]
Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2020 Statistical shape models (SSMs) are a well established computational technique to represent the morphological variability spread in a set of matching surfaces by means of compact descriptive quantities, traditionally called “modes of variation” (MoVs ...

Multi-level multi-domain statistical shape model of the subtalar, talonavicular, and calcaneocuboid joints [PDF]
Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2022 Traditionally, two-dimensional conventional radiographs have been the primary tool to measure the complex morphology of the foot and ankle. However, the subtalar, talonavicular, and calcaneocuboid joints are challenging to assess due to their bone ...
