Data Collection and Experiments
Soft Tissue Artefacts (STA) are a major block for estimating biomechanics and capturing skin marker-based motion. In our study, we developed a technique to determine the actual motion of underlying bone with the analysis of ultrasound (US) bone image and to correct for soft tissue artifacts.
Our method was optimized by experimental data and evaluated by different approaches. Bone region detection block achieved 0.83 IoU. Bone outline segmentation block resulted in 80% good segmentations.
