Abstract :
Injuries of the bony orbit, which contains the eye, not only have aesthetic implications but also impair stereoscopic vision. Different techniques are used for surgical treatment. In this work we will present a tool that allows the reliable segmentation of the reconstructed and the unaffected orbit. For this we present a novel anterior closing that follows the clinical understanding of anatomy. To assist in the post-surgical evaluation, we suggest parameters with respect to clinically relevant regions (orbital floor, medial wall) and demonstrate a method to automatically determine them. We evaluate our methods on three clinical cases.
