Dear Anybody
I wonder if there is suggestion for which landmarks should one use for each bone in general. As far as I understand , there is only example of femur in the tutorial and lumber spine in one of appendix
For my work currently we are interested in pelvic bone
Hi Por,
Unfortunately these are not available at the moment. I would recommend you to select your own as they are very case-specific. Pelvis is a tricky bone and the actual landmark protocol will depend on the quality you want to get.
The only suggestion is not to use AnyFunTransform3DSTL in the loop, stop at the RBF level. Very thin bones are not working well with this transformation.
Kind regards,
Pavel
Hi Pavel
I am sorry to bother you again
I follow your suggestion and manage to morph some of the bone.
however , now I have some problem to position my morphed femur back in proper place.
here are my code
// ----------------------------------------------------------
// Patient Specific Settings
// ----------------------------------------------------------
#define BM_SCALING CONST_SCALING_STANDARD
“Model\AnyFamily\AnyManExtPercentile.any”
“Model\AnyFamily\AnyWomanExtPercentile.any”
// Transformation of the model to investigate resultant hip force.
//
// Default setting (0) scales the whole body using body height and mass.
// Custom 3D-Transformation (1) of the pelvis and its RefNodes
// scales the pelvis to a patient specific geometry using 14 bony
// landmarks from CT. For the remaining model parts default scaling
// using patient height and mass is applied.
// The selected scaling law is applied in “HumanModel.any” which can
// be found in both study sections.
//
// Turn pelvis transformation on (1) or off (0) and choose a patient:
#ifndef PELVIS_TRANSFORMATION
#define PELVIS_TRANSFORMATION 1
#endif
/------------- SCALING CONFIGURATION SECTION --------------------/
// Turn patient-specific transformation of proximal femur on (1, 2) or off (0)
// ‘0’: Scaling of femur using body height and weight only
// ‘1’: Scaling of femur using body height and weight, patient-specific
// positioning of hip joint centers only
// ‘2’: See ‘1’ with medio-lateral scaling using hip joint center and
// trochanter major (not recommended)
// ‘3’: See ‘1’ with additional surface transformation of proximal femur
#ifndef FEMUR_TRANSFORMATION
#define FEMUR_TRANSFORMATION 3
#endif
// Scaling of remaining bones in longitudinal direction only (1) or use
// standard length-mass scaling law affecting transverse directions
// of the bones and muscles strength as well (0)
#ifndef LONGITUDINAL_SCALING
#define LONGITUDINAL_SCALING 0
#endif
// Choose patient number (1 to 10)
#ifndef PATIENT
#define PATIENT 8
#endif
AnyInt Patient = PATIENT;
// Read patient specific data: mass, height, CT resolution
#include “ReadPatientData.any”
// Custom scaling law is used for the pelvis only
#include “PelvisCustomScaling.any”
// Custom scaling law is used for the femur only
#include “FemurCustomScaling.any”
#include “<ANYBODY_PATH_BODY>/HumanModel.any”
but it give error
ERROR(SCR.SCN6) : H:/H…s/m…g/AMMR/Body/A…n/B…s/G…l/BodyModel.any(20) : ‘TLEM_PATH_VERSION’ : Unexpected character.
Model loading skipped
Where else should I have to change
Hi Por,
It looks like you lost some of the default settings in your model. Please have a look that you still #include “…/libdef.any” before Main folder or something like that.
Regards,
Pavel
