摘要：Image registration is the process of spatially aligning one image to another. It has applications
in different areas of medical image analysis. It can be used to assist the investigation of joint
kinematics in conditions such as ligament injury, osteoarthritis, and after joint replacement.
Analysing the 3D movement of joints after total knee arthroplasty surgery is crucial as the
correct position and relative movement of knee implants will significantly impact the success of
the surgery. However, most studies on this area are not very accurate or computationally
expensive, or invasive, and still insufficient and developing. In this paper, we propose a noninvasive
and robust 3D to 2D registration method, which can be used for 3D evaluations of the
status of knee implants. This method addresses several challenges with regard to the
registration of the implants. The experimental results show that the proposed method is not only
robust but also fast.
