Bones of the Lower Limb: Tibia and Fibula

5.3K
The tibia is the main weight-bearing bone of the lower leg. It is larger than the fibula with which it is paired. The tibia is also the second longest bone in the body and is located right below the skin. The proximal end of the tibia forms the medial and the lateral condyle, which articulates with the condyles of the femur to form the knee joint. Between the articulating surfaces is the irregular elevated area known as the intercondylar eminence that serves as the inferior attachment point for...

Area of Science:

  • Biomedical Engineering
  • Medical Imaging
  • Artificial Intelligence

Background:

  • Recurrent complaints after total knee arthroplasty (TKA) may indicate aseptic implant loosening.
  • Current imaging methods struggle to quantify TKA component looseness.
  • A validated workflow exists for quantifying tibial component displacement using loaded CT scans, but requires manual segmentation.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the feasibility of fully automating the segmentation step in TKA component displacement analysis.
  • To evaluate if deep learning (DL) models can replace semi-automatic segmentation without affecting outcome accuracy.
  • To maintain the capability of distinguishing between fixed and loose implants.

Main Methods:

  • Developed and evaluated various deep learning (DL) models for fully automatic segmentation of tibial components and bone from CT scans.
  • Utilized three datasets for model development and evaluation, including cadaveric and patient CT data.
  • Integrated the best-performing DL model into the existing workflow, replacing the semi-automatic segmentation step.

Main Results:

  • The DL-based approach demonstrated statistically significant differences between fixed and loose implant samples in both cadaveric and patient datasets.
  • Methodological errors were not significantly different between the automated and semi-automatic approaches.
  • Both the proposed and current approaches showed excellent reliability across multiple operators and datasets.

Conclusions:

  • Full automation of knee implant displacement assessment is achievable using DL-based segmentation.
  • The automated approach maintains the accuracy and reliability of the existing workflow.
  • This automation can simplify the analysis of tibial component loosening after TKA.
