  • SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR ARTICULAR CARTILAGE THICKNESS MAPPING AND LESION QUANTIFICATION
    Publication number: 20230222651
    Abstract: Systems and methods for articular cartilage thickness mapping and lesion quantification operate on 3D medical image data to reconstruct cartilage surfaces, estimate surface normals, determine cartilage thickness, and identify regions of full-thickness cartilage loss (FCL). Reconstructed cartilage surfaces can be parcellated into subregions using a rule-based approach.
