Robot-assisted biopsy using computed tomography-guidance: initial results from in vitro tests.

abstract：:We present a new method for evaluating in vivo changes in bone mineralization in the peripheral skeleton, using computed tomography (CT). A set of bone mineralization indices are generated from numerous CT images of the patient's distal radius. The cross-sectional anatomy displayed by the CT scan allows for separate e...
