MONITOR3D: Design of a 3D Scanner for Measuring Preterm Infant Head Circumference

In 2010, an estimated 15 million infants were born prematurely, which makes up 10% of all childbirths that year. Just in the Netherlands there were 11,530 preterm births in 2018. Since these children should be spending additional months inside of the uterus, they are delicate and need to grow until near regular gestational age inside of an...

Hands can: Determining the location and range of motion of digital joints in 3D scans

The versatility of the hands is revealed in its movements, but often not noticed before trauma occurs. Joint range of motion is used as a measure to follow the progress of diseases. A digital workflow for 3D data in medical appliances is envisioned for years.<br/>The aim of this research is to develop a method that reliably and reproducability...
