Investigation of the Average Shape and Principal Variations of the Human Talus Bone Using Statistic Shape Model

Due to the complexity of articular interconnections and tenuous blood supply to the talus, talus fractures are often associated with complications (e.g., avascular necrosis). Currently, surgically fusing the talus to adjacent bones is widely used as treatment to talus fractures, but this procedure c...
