ABSTRACT
There is a lack of volume preserving and reasonable deformation of human muscles during bones and joints movement in the field of digital orthopedics. A novel approach for modeling of human muscle and its deformation was put forward to effectively assist doctors in guiding patients to carry out rehabilitation exercises. Firstly, based on Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) data, the generated slice images were used to extract the outer contour lines and then the corresponding contour lines and optimal matching points of the adjacent layer images were connected to construct the three-dimensional (3D) geometric models of the muscles; Secondly, the mapping relationship between parameters can be established through hierarchical definition of the muscle characteristics to realize the volume-preserving deformation of muscle; Finally, the movement of human joints can be realized based on the constraint range of joint movement, and the vector-valued dynamic fourth-order differential equation was proposed to make the characteristic curve dynamically simulate the process of muscle deformation, thereby forming the corresponding relationship between bone movement and muscle deformation. The effectiveness and feasibility of this method have been verified in our experiments with biceps brachii and triceps brachii as examples. The maximum volume errors of biceps brachii and triceps brachii during the deformation process were less than 0.6%, which can be ignored within a certain allowable error range, reflecting that the parametric method was used to realize the reasonable volume-preserving deformation of human muscle.
