Abstract
Techniques for fabrication of implant material for the reconstruction of fractured eye orbit may include using an image processing system to analyze a set of two-dimensional images representing a three-dimensional scan of a skull of a patient, automatically detect an orbital fracture in the skull based on the set of two-dimensional images, and identify which/both of the two eye orbits containing any orbital fracture. The techniques may further include, for each of the two-dimensional images in which the orbital fracture is detected, determining a region of interest, and extracting the region of interest. The techniques may further include generating a three-dimensional reconstruction model for the fractured eye orbit, and outputting model data for generating an implant mold for the fractured eye orbit.
