Abstract:
OBJECTIVE: In order to get three dimensional measurements simply an plain X-ray photographs. METHODS: The multi-layers of bone pieces were made by use of bone saw, and piled up to spiral ladder, which was used as a calibrating module for to living bone in clinics. The relationship between the cortical thickness and gray level of the X-ray photographs was obtained. RESULTS: The correlation can be described with a cubic regression curve, and it can be simplified to a linear regression equation when cortical thickness is small than 3.8 mm. CONCLUSION: It can be realized to get three dimensional measures of the bone on plain X-ray photographs, by use of the bony spiral ladder described here.
