Original Abstract

The creation of a trabecular model of cancellous bone (which, in our opinion, is more appropriate) is quite difficult. MicroCT images are indispensable for this case as well as the software for their processing. Authors of this paper developed for this purpose a specialized software called STL Model Creator which works in Matlab platform. The software uses image processing methods in segmentation of cancellous bone images (thresholding). The paper introduces a method of creating of computational model and initial stress-strain analysis utilizing this model is presented as well.

Keywords

Micro CT, bone, finite element method, stress strain analysis, image processing.
