Abstract

This project aims at developing a software for the surgical planning of forearm osteotomies.
Contrary to the state-of-the-art, the contralateral healthy bone is not needed as a reconstruction
template anymore, because an inference engine predicts the normal (pre-traumatic) bone
anatomy. Our approach permits the reduction of the radiation dose by 50%, the 3D planning of
bilateral deformities, and the integration into an existing commercial planning service for hospitals.
