Introduction
• Anatomical point and region landmarks provide a basis to
quantify the morphological changes of bones and the joint
orientation/motion based on anatomical knowledge [1-2]
• However, determining the
landmarks on the bone
surfaces is a difficult and
time-consuming task, due
to the large variations of
size and shape, and the lack
of the salient features of the
landmarks

Contributions
• We propose a template-based landmark mapping method for the
consistent and automated landmark assignment on individuals’ bone
surfaces.
• Template model in our approach
– Encoding the generic shape features of the structure as a surface mesh
– Including the anatomical landmarks as subsets of the points of the surface
mesh
• Proposed template-based landmark mapping
– Building a pairwise correspondence between the template and the target
volume
– Achieved by a non-rigid surface-to-volume registration technique
– To place the anatomical landmarks and compare them via transitive relation
between subjects 8/13/2014 4 AOFAS 2014 Annual Meeting

AOFAS 2014 Annual Meeting
• Template surface model
– Generated from an image atlas of target structures
– Image atlas = mean shape image of the input binary masks
– Marching cubes algorithm + regular surface sampling
• Anatomical region and point landmarks
– Assigned manually onto
the template surface model
– We used a point selection tool
in the Paraview software
(www.paraview.org, version 4.1.0)
– Save the landmarks as subsets
of the point indices of the
template model

Template-to-Volume
Registration • Two steps of template-to-volume registration
– 1st step: a rigid alignment of the template model to target volume using
iterative closest point algorithm
– 2nd step: a non-rigid template deformation to boundaries
• A progressive deformation based on a Laplacian surface representation and a
flexible weighting scheme of rigidity [3]
• Preserving the geometric features (relative area of triangles and local curvature)
as strong as possible during the template surface deformation
• To place the points of the template to anatomically corresponded positions on the
target volume

Experiments on Human Data
- Calcaneus Study
• Materials
– CT scans of 10 non-diseased subjects
– Modeling the calcaneus using the template model, generated from the mean image of
all binary masks
– Template surface sampling: 1.016~2.392mm (distance between points)
• Landmark assignment to template model
– Anterior, middle and posterior articular surface for the talus
• Experiments
– Evaluation of the template-to-volume registration
• Measuring the shape similarity between the template and the binary masks using volume
overlap and distance metrics (mean and Hausdorff distances)
– Evaluation of the landmark mapping
• Comparing the template-based landmarks with manually assigned landmarks on individuals’
surface models

Summary
• Template-based landmark mapping framework
– Using a template-to-volume registration finding the pairwise
correspondence between the template and target volume
– Provide an accurate surface representation and the
individualized positions of the anatomical landmarks
• Future directions
– Statistical analysis of the landmark correspondence across
multiple subjects
– Application to large datasets including subjects with disorders of
foot and ankle
– Correlation analysis between joint motion and shape changes
