Effect of different femur shapes on the development of cam-type deformities: The development of a combined bone growth and remodeling algorithm to investigate the effect of different femur shapes generated by a SSAM on the development of cam-type deformities

Introduction: A combined bone growth and remodeling model should be created, to investigate the effect of different femur shapes on the risk of developing cam type deformities. The different femur shapes needed for this study can be created using a statistical shape and appearance model (SSAM). The workflow of the combined bone growth and...
