Computer-assisted, model-based planning procedures typically cover specific modifications of “virtual anatomy” as well as numeric simulations of associated phenomena, like e.g. mechanical loads, fluid dynamics, or diffusion processes, in order to evaluate a potential therapeutic outcome. Since internal anatomical structures cannot be measured optically or mechanically in vivo, three-dimensional reconstruction of tomographic image data remains the method of choice. In this work the process chain of individual anatomy reconstruction is described which consists of segmentation of medical image data, geometrical reconstruction of all relevant tissue interfaces, up to the generation of geometric approximations (boundary surfaces and volumetric meshes) of three-dimensional anatomy being suited for finite element analysis. All results presented herein are generated with amira ® – a highly interactive software system for 3D data analysis, visualization and geometry reconstruction.

Hence, the role of facial plastic surgery is highly interrelated to a patient's desire to feature many of these positively connoted attributes, which of course, are subject of different cultural perceptions or social trends. To judge about somebody's facial appearance, appropriate quantitative measures as well as methods to obtain and compare individual facial features are required. This special issue on facial profile is intended to provide an overview on how facial characteristics are surgically managed in an interdisciplinary way based on experience, instrumentation, and modern technology to obtain an aesthetic facial appearance with harmonious facial proportions. The facial profile will be discussed within the context of facial aesthetics. Latest concepts for capturing facial morphology in high speed and impressive detail are presented for quantitative analysis of even subtle changes, aging effects, or facial expressions. In addition, the perception of facial profiles is evaluated based on eye tracking technology.

Knochenschnitten (sogenannten Osteotomien) an dreidimensionalen, computergrafischen Schädelmodellen, sowie die Umpositionierung separierter knöcherner Segmente im Kontext der rekonstruktiven MKG-Chirurgie behandelt. Durch die 3D Modellierung und Visualisierung anatomischer Strukturen, sowie der 3D Osteotomie- und Umstellungsplanung unter Einbeziehung der resultierenden Weichgewebedeformation wird den Chirurgen ein Werkzeug an die Hand gegeben, mit dem eine Therapieplanung am Computer durchgeführt und diese in Hinblick auf Funktion und Ästhetik bewertet werden kann. Unterschiedliche Strategien können dabei erprobt und in ihrer Auswirkung erfasst werden. Dazu wird ein methodischer Ansatz vorgestellt, der zum einen die chirurgische Planung im Vergleich zu existierenden Ansätzen deutlich verbessert und zum anderen eine robuste Weichgewebeprognose, durch den Einsatz geeigneter Planungsmodelle und eines physikalisch basierten Weichgewebemodells unter Nutzung numerischer Lösungsverfahren in die Planung integriert. Die Visualisierung der Planungsergebnisse erlaubt sowohl eine anschauliche und überzeugende, präoperative Patientenaufklärung, als auch die Demonstration möglicher Vorgehensweisen und deren Auswirkungen für die chirurgische Ausbildung. Ferner ergänzen die Planungsdaten die Falldokumentation und liefern einen Beitrag zur Qualitätssicherung. Die Arbeit ist in sieben Kapitel gegliedert und wie folgt strukturiert: Zuerst wird die medizinische Aufgabenstellung bei der chirurgischen Rekonstruktion von Knochenfehlbildungen und -fehlstellungen in der kraniofazialen Chirurgie sowie die daraus resultierenden Anforderungen an die Therapieplanung beschrieben. Anschließend folgt ein umfassender Überblick über entsprechende Vorarbeiten zur computergestützten Planung knochenverlagernder Operationen und eine kritische Bestandsaufnahme der noch vorhandenen Defizite. Nach der Vorstellung des eigenen Planungsansatzes wird die Generierung individueller, qualitativ hochwertiger 3D Planungsmodelle aus tomografischen Bilddaten beschrieben, die den Anforderungen an eine intuitive, 3D Planung von Umstellungsosteotomien entsprechen und eine Simulation der daraus resultierenden Weichgewebedeformation mittels der Finite-Elemente Methode (FEM) ermöglichen. Die Methoden der 3D Schnittplanung an computergrafischen Modellen werden analysiert und eine 3D Osteotomieplanung an polygonalen Schädelmodellen entwickelt, die es ermöglicht, intuitiv durch Definition von Schnittlinien am 3D Knochenmodell, eine den chirurgischen Anforderungen entsprechende Schnittplanung unter Berücksichtigung von Risikostrukturen durchzuführen. Separierte Knochensegmente lassen sich im Anschluss interaktiv umpositionieren und die resultierende Gesamtanordnung hinsichtlich einer funktionellen Rehabilitation bewerten. Aufgrund des in dieser Arbeit gewählten, physikalisch basierten Modellierungsansatzes kann unter Berücksichtigung des gesamten Weichgewebevolumens aus der Knochenverlagerung direkt die resultierende Gesichtsform berechnet werden. Dies wird anhand von 13 exemplarischen Fallstudien anschaulich demonstriert, wobei die Prognosequalität mittels postoperativer Fotografien und postoperativer CT-Daten überprüft und belegt wird. Die Arbeit wird mit einem Ausblick auf erweiterte Modellierungsansätze und einem Konzept für eine integrierte, klinisch einsetzbare Planungsumgebung abgeschlossen. N2 - In cranio-maxillofacial surgery, physicians are often faced with skeletal malformations that require complex bone relocations. Especially in severe cases of congenital dysgnathia (misalignment of upper and lower jaw) or hemifacial microsomia (asymmetric bone and tissue development), where multiple bone segments are to be mobilized and relocated simultaneously and in relation to each other, careful preoperative planning is mandatory. At present in clinical routine not all possible strategies can be planned and assessed with regard to functional rehabilitation. Moreover, the aesthetic outcome, i.e. the postoperative facial appearance, can only be estimated by a surgeon's experience and hardly communicated to the patient. On this account, a preoperative planning of complex osteotomies with bone relocations on a computerized model of a patient's head, including a reliable three-dimensional prediction and visualization of the post-surgical facial appearance is a highly appreciated possibility cranio-maxillofacial surgeons are longing for. This work, being performed at Zuse Institute Berlin (ZIB), addresses such a computer based 3D~surgery planning. A processing pipeline has been established and a simulation environment has been developed on basis of the software Amira, enabling a surgeon to perform bone cuts and bone rearrangements in an intuitive manner on virtual patient models. In addition, a prediction of the patients' postoperative appearance according to the relocated bone can be simulated and visualized realistically. For a meaningful planning of surgical procedures, anatomically correct patient models providing all relevant details are reconstructed from tomographic data with high fidelity. These patient models reliably represent bony structures as well as the facial soft tissue. Unstructured volumetric grids of the soft tissue are generated for a fast and efficient numerical solution of partial differential equations, describing tissue deformation on the foundation of 3D elastomechanics. The planning of osteotomies (bone cuts) for the mobilization and relocation of bone segments is performed in accordance to the planning on basis of life size replicas of a patient's skull, i.e. stereolitographic models. Osteotomy lines can be drawn on top of the polygonal planning models using suitable input devices. After evaluation of the consequence of a planned cut with regard to vulnerable inner structures (nerves, teeth etc.) the model is separated accordingly. A relocation of bone segments can be performed unrestrictedly in 3D or restricted to a translation or rotation within arbitrarily chosen planes under consideration of cephalometric guidelines. Bone and tooth collisions can be evaluated for functional analysis or orthodontic treatment planning with possible integration of digitized dental plaster casts. As a result of the preoperative planning, a single transformation matrix, encoding translation and rotation, or a sequence of such matrices are provided for each bone segment. Both the osteotomy paths and the transformation parameters can finally be used for intra-operative navigation. In the course of the planning, the relocated positions of bone segments serve as an input for the simulation of the resulting soft tissue deformation. Since bone and surrounding soft tissue share common boundaries that are either fixed or translocated, the resulting configuration of the entire tissue volume can be computed from the given boundary displacements by numerical minimization of the internal strain energy on basis of a biomechanical model, using a finite-element approach. In collaboration with different surgeons and hospitals more than 25 treatments have been accompanied by preoperative planning so far ranging from mandibular and midfacial hypoplasia to complex hemifacial microsomia. 13 of these cases are presented within this work. Simulation results were validated on the basis of photographs as well as of postoperative CT data, showing a good correlation between simulation and postoperative outcome. Further aspects of improving the modeling approach are discussed. It has been demonstrated that 3D~osteotomy planning on virtual patient models can be performed intuitively, and that 3D~tissue deformation for cranio-maxillofacial osteotomy planning can be predicted numerically without using heuristic ratios. It can be stated that by using 3D~planning software, a surgeon gains a better spatial understanding of complex dysplasia, and the 3D~soft tissue prediction gives an additional criterion for the assessment of the planned strategy. It turned out that, especially in complex cases such as hemifacial microsomia or for decisions bet­ween mono- and bimaxillary advancements, a 3D~planning aid is extremely helpful. The conclusion is, that images and animations created within the planning phase provide a valuable planning criterion for maxillofacial surgeons as well as a demonstrative information for patients and their relatives, thus greatly enhancing patient information, as well as surgical education. All data that result from the planning are also important for documentation and quality assurance. 3D osteotomy planning, including soft tissue prediction, likely will become a new paradigm of plastic and reconstructive surgery planning in the future.

Model-guided and computer-assisted surgery planning has tremendously developed due to ever increasing computational capabilities. Simulators for education, planning, and training of surgery are often compared with flight simulators, where maneuvers are also trained to reduce a possible risk of failure. Meanwhile, digital patient models can be derived from medical image data with astonishing accuracy and thus can serve for model surgery to derive a surgical template model that represents the envisaged result. Computerized surgical planning approaches, however, are often still explorative, meaning that a surgeon tries to find a therapeutic concept based on his or her expertise using computational tools that are mimicking real procedures. Future perspectives of an improved computerized planning may be that surgical objectives will be generated algorithmically by employing mathematical modeling, simulation, and optimization techniques. Planning systems thus act as intelligent decision support systems. However, surgeons can still use the existing tools to vary the proposed approach, but they mainly focus on how to transfer objectives into reality. Such a development may result in a paradigm shift for future surgery planning.

One explanation may be a shape mismatch between pre and post-operative distal femurs. The purpose of this study was to investigate a method to match a statistical shape model (SSM) to intra-operatively acquired point cloud data from a surgical navigation system, and to validate it against the pre-operative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) data from the same patients. Methods: A total of 10 patients who underwent navigated total knee arthroplasty also had an MRI scan less than 2 months pre-operatively. The standard surgical protocol was followed which included partial digitization of the distal femur. Two different methods were employed to fit the SSM to the digitized point cloud data, based on (1) Iterative Closest Points (ICP) and (2) Gaussian Mixture Models (GMM). The available MRI data were manually segmented and the reconstructed three-dimensional surfaces used as ground truth against which the statistical shape model fit was compared. Results: For both approaches, the difference between the statistical shape model-generated femur and the surface generated from MRI segmentation averaged less than 1.7 mm, with maximum errors occurring in less clinically important areas. Conclusion: The results demonstrated good correspondence with the distal femoral morphology even in cases of sparse data sets. Application of this technique will allow for measurement of mismatch between pre and post-operative femurs retrospectively on any case done using the surgical navigation system and could be integrated into the surgical navigation unit to provide real-time feedback.

Methods: Gray value selection for the upper and lower jaw segmentation was performed in 40 patients. In total, CBCT data of 20 maxillae and 20 mandibles, ten partial edentulous and ten fully edentulous in each jaw, respectively, were evaluated using two different gray value selection procedures: manual lower threshold selection and automated lower threshold selection. Two sample t tests, linear regression models, linear mixed models, and Pearson's correlation coefficients were computed to evaluate the influence of teeth, dental restorations, and threshold selection procedures on gray value distributions. Results: Manual threshold selection resulted in significantly different gray values in the fully and partially edentulous mandible. (p = 0.015, difference 123). In automated threshold selection, only tendencies to different gray values in fully edentulous compared to partially edentulous jaws were observed (difference: 58–75). Significantly different gray values were evaluated for threshold selection approaches, independent of the dental situation of the analyzed jaw. No significant correlation between the number of teeth and gray values was assessed, but a trend towards higher gray values in patients with more teeth was noted. Conclusions: Standard gray values derived from CT imaging do not apply for threshold-based bone segmentation in CBCT. Teeth influence gray values and segmentation results. Inaccurate bone segmentation may result in ill-fitting surgical guides produced on CBCT data and misinterpreting bone density, which is crucial for selecting surgical protocols.

By adopting a physical perspective, we introduce a differential representation that puts the local geometric variability into focus. We model these differential coordinates as elements of a Lie group thereby endowing our shape space with a non-Euclidean structure. A key advantage of our framework is that statistics in a manifold shape space becomes numerically tractable improving performance by several orders of magnitude over state-of-the-art. We show that our Riemannian model is well suited for the identification of intra-population variability as well as inter-population differences. In particular, we demonstrate the superiority of the proposed model in experiments on specificity and generalization ability. We further derive a statistical shape descriptor that outperforms the standard Euclidean approach in terms of shape-based classification of morphological disorders.
