[A hip joint surgical planning system using 3-D images].
This paper describes a hip joint surgical simulation system using a three-dimensional image (X-ray CT images). We developed this system in cooperation with surgeons, and we have already applied it to several clinical examples. According to a surgeon who used our system for actual surgical plannings, most of the hip joint surgeries operated at the present time can be simulated. Our system has useful functions in order to plan surgeries such as interference check in movement of a bone and display of the attached surface of bone. We show an actual surgical planning process performed by the surgeon with our system.
