    Area of Science:

    • Anatomical imaging
    • Medical robotics
    • Ultrasound technology

    Background:

    • The carpal arch's morphology dictates the space available for the median nerve within the carpal tunnel.
    • Understanding carpal tunnel anatomy is crucial for diagnosing and treating conditions like carpal tunnel syndrome.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To reconstruct the three-dimensional (3D) carpal arch using robot-assisted ultrasonography.
    • To investigate the 3D morphological properties of the carpal arch.

    Main Methods:

    • A robotic arm integrated with a 2D linear array ultrasound probe scanned cadaveric carpal tunnels.
    • Two-dimensional ultrasound images and robot positioning data were used to create 3D carpal arch reconstructions for morphometric analysis.

    Main Results:

    • The total carpal arch volume was measured, with distinct contributions from distal, middle, and proximal regions.
    • Key morphological parameters such as width, height, curvature, and palmar bowing index showed progressive increases from distal to proximal locations within the tunnel.

    Conclusions:

    • Robot-assisted ultrasound technology enhances traditional 2D imaging for 3D carpal arch reconstruction.
    • This method provides a comprehensive morphological assessment of the carpal arch and has potential applications for in vivo anatomical analysis.
