Abstract: Determination of the human bone stability is very important when arranging for rehabilitation or removal of internal fixators for broken bones. Usually, to determine the bone stability, doctors inspect X-ray photographs by subjectively with their experiences. As a result, it is difficult to explain quantitatively the condition to patients. Thus, a clinically feasible method to determine the bone stability is awaited. We have attempted to develop such a method for quantitative evaluation of the stability by image processing X-ray photographs. As a result, we successfully established the necessary conditions for quantitative evaluation of the bone stability.
