Watertight 2-manifold 3D bone surface model reconstruction from CT images based on visual hyper-spherical mapping

This paper proposes a general algorithm to reconstruct watertight 2-manifold 3D bone surface model from CT images based on visual hyper-spherical mapping. The reconstruction algorithm includes three main steps: two-step thresholding, initial watertight surface reconstruction and shape optimization....
