Area of Science:

  • Orthopedics
  • Medical Imaging
  • Biotechnology

Background:

  • Three-dimensional (3D) stereophotogrammetry is established in maxillofacial surgery for precise imaging and treatment planning.
  • Its application in hand surgery remains largely unexplored in clinical settings.
  • Computed tomography (CT) fusion imaging enhances surgical planning.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the reproducibility of 3D stereophotogrammetry for hand imaging.
  • To assess the accuracy of 3D stereophotogrammetry for soft tissue analysis in the hand.
  • To explore potential clinical applications in hand surgery.

Main Methods:

  • Analysis of 34 three-dimensional hand photographs.
  • 3D photographs captured at two time points (T0 and T1) to assess reproducibility.
  • Two registration methods were used and compared.
  • Comparison of male and female hand dimensions using distance maps.

Main Results:

  • The mean registration error for the entire hand was 1.46 mm.
  • The mean registration error for the palm region was reduced to 0.56 mm.
  • Male hands were found to be larger than female hands, with broader bases and longer fingers.

Conclusions:

  • 3D stereophotogrammetry provides reproducible and accurate soft tissue analysis of the hand.
  • The method is non-invasive and has minimal side effects.
  • Further research is needed to explore its routine clinical use in hand surgery.
