Abstract

Background and Objectives: In the field of orthopedic surgery, novel techniques of three-dimensional shape modeling using two-dimensional tomographic images are used for bone-shape measurements, preoperative planning in joint-replacement surgery, and postoperative evaluation. ZedView® (three-dimensional measurement instrument and preoperative-planning software) had previously been developed. Our group is also using ZedView® for preoperative planning and postoperative evaluation for more accurate implant placement and osteotomy. This study aimed to evaluate the measurement error in this software in comparison to a three-dimensional measuring instrument (3DMI) using human bones. Materials and Methods: The study was conducted using three bones from cadavers: the pelvic bone, femur, and tibia. Three markers were attached to each bone. Study 1: The bones with markers were fixed on the 3DMI. For each bone, the coordinates of the center point of the markers were measured, and the distances and angles between these three points were calculated and defined as “true values.” Study 2: The posterior surface of the femur was placed face down on the 3DMI, and the distances from the table to the center of each marker were measured and defined as “true values.” In each study, the same bone was imaged using computed tomography, measured with this software, and the measurement error from the corresponding “true values” was calculated. Results: Study 1: The mean diameter of the same marker using the 3DMI was 23.951 ± 0.055 mm. Comparisons between measurements using the 3DMI and this software revealed that the mean error in length was <0.3 mm, and the error in angle was <0.25°. Study 2: In the bones adjusted to the retrocondylar plane with the 3DMI and this software, the average error in the distance from the planes to each marker was 0.43 (0.32–0.58) mm. Conclusion: This surgical planning software could measure the distance and angle between the centers of the markers with high accuracy; therefore, this is very useful for pre- and postoperative evaluation.
