Title
Regression forest-based automatic estimation of the articular margin plane for shoulder prosthesis planning.
Abstract
•We present a fully automated method for estimating the articular margin plane of the proximal humerus from computed tomography images.•The two-step approach consists of a coarse estimation stage followed by a refinement step which permits to considerably reduce the overall processing time.•The algorithm achieves accuracy comparable to manual annotation.•We present novel feature types that combine a bone enhancing sheetness-measure with ray features.•The method has the potential to automate time-consuming preoperative planning tasks.
