本文描述了一种用于定量评估髂小梁骨吸收腔的计算机化技术。使用II图像分析仪，使用曲线拟合技术重建被骨吸收细胞侵蚀的原始骨表面，该技术与腔两侧的小梁骨保持平滑的连续性。利用相互作用弹性圆测量吸收深度；所有确定的空腔都是用一个相互作用的弹性圆测量的；无论吸收是否完全，都测量所有确定的空腔，测量结果包括平均和最大空腔深度、空腔长度、面积和邻近小梁宽度。报告了13例正常受试者的结果。该技术可重复，操作简单，相对快速，并可应用于不太复杂的图像分析系统。
A computerised technique is described for the quantitative assessment of resorption cavities in iliac trabecular bone. Using an Ibas II image analyser, the original bone surface, eroded by bone resorbing cells, is reconstructed using a curve fitting technique that maintains a smooth continuity with trabecular bone on either side of the cavity. Resorption depths are measured using an interactive elastic circle; all identified cavities are measured using an interactive elastic circle; all identified cavities are measured regardless of whether or not resorption is complete, and the measurements made include mean and maximum cavity depth, cavity length, area, and adjacent trabecular widths. Results in 13 normal subjects are presented. The technique is reproducible, simple to operate, relatively rapid, and can be applied to less sophisticated image analysis systems.
