Özet

Cranioplasty is a neurosurgical operation for repairing cranial defects that have occurred in a previous operation or trauma. Various methods have been presented for cranioplasty from past to present. In computer-aided design based methods, quality of an implant depends on operator's talent. In mathematical model based methods, such as curve-fitting and various interpolations, healthy parts of a skull are used to generate implant model. Researchers have studied to improve performance of mathematical models which are independent from operators' talent. In this study, improvement of radial basis function (RBF) interpolation performance using symmetrical data is presented. Since we focused on the improvement of RBF interpolation performance on cranial implant design, results were compared with previous studies involving the same technique. In comparison with previously presented results, difference between the computed implant model and the original skull was reduced from 7 mm to 2 mm using newly proposed approach.
