This paper presents a new approach for reconstructing a patient-specific shape model and internal relative intensity distribution of the proximal femur from a limited number (e.g., 2) of calibrated C-arm images or X-ray radiographs. Our approach uses independent shape and appearance models that are learned from a set of training data to encode the a priori information about the proximal femur. An intensity-based non-rigid 2D-3D registration algorithm is then proposed to deformably fit the learned models to the input images. The fitting is conducted iteratively by minimizing the dissimilarity between the input images and the associated digitally reconstructed radiographs of the learned models together with regularization terms encoding the strain energy of the forward deformation and the smoothness of the inverse deformation. Comprehensive experiments conducted on images of cadaveric femurs and on clinical datasets demonstrate the efficacy of the present approach.
