Abstract: A method for determining an axial direction of a bore of a bone fixator includes the following steps: obtaining X-ray images of the bore, calculating perpendicular bisectors, determining spatial planes, and obtaining the axial direction of the bore. After X-ray images of the bore are taken from two X-ray source positions, two overlapping images of the bore are obtained for calculating two perpendicular bisectors therein respectively.
