ABSTRACT
[Objective]To establish digitized visible model of the wrist joint.[Method]Coronal sect ional images of a series of 0.2 man-thick cryosecfions of wrist joint specimens were obtained.After registration and segmentation,the three-dimensional computerized reconstruction of the carpal bone and arch-ligament and its adjacent structures were performed on PC.[Result]For reconstructed Successfully 3D the structures model of wrist joint its adjacent 28 structures.This model can be displayed with single structure and its adjacent structures for wrist joint and can be displayed with several structures in different color and hyalinize.And it can be displayed from any direct ion.Moreover all structures can be measured through angle or line from any direction.[Conclusion]Three-dimensional reconstruction model of the wrist joint demonstrate the relation of anatomy between the carpal bone and ligament by poly-point of view and is meaningful for operations of the wrist joints.
