Abstract
Skeletonization provides a compact yet effective representation of an object using its medial loci defined by Blum’s grassfire transform process. It has been popularly used in many low- as well as high-level imaging applications. Quantitative characterization of object structures is a popular application of skeletonization, where a skeleton serves two purposes—generations of a compact representation of an object and location of representative points for defining local structure morphology. This paper reviews the roles of skeletonization and digital topological analysis in characterizing individual trabecular bone plate-rod microstructure assessing overall bone quality and fracture risk at in vivo imaging.
