Arthroplasty is commonly performed to treat joint osteoarthritis, reducing pain and improving mobility. Nevertheless, a significant share of patients remain unsatisfied with their surgery. Personalised arthroplasty was introduced to improve surgical outcomes however current solutions require delays, making it difficult to integrate in clinical routine. We propose a fully automated workflow to design patient-specific implants for total knee arthroplasty.<\/jats:p>\n<jats:p><jats:bold>Methods<\/jats:bold> The proposed pipeline first uses artificial neural networks to segment the femur and tibia proximal and distal extremities. Then the full bones are reconstructed using augmented statistical shape models, combining shape and landmarks information. Finally, 77 morphological parameters are computed to design patient-specific implants. The developed workflow has been trained on 91 CT scans and evaluated on 41 CT scans, in terms of accuracy and execution time.<\/jats:p>\n<jats:p><jats:bold>Results<\/jats:bold> The workflow accuracy was <jats:inline-formula id=\"pone.0325587.e001\"><jats:alternatives><jats:graphic xmlns:xlink=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1999\/xlink\" id=\"pone.0325587.e001g\" mimetype=\"image\" position=\"anchor\" xlink:href=\"info:doi\/10.1371\/journal.pone.0325587.e001\" xlink:type=\"simple\"\/><mml:math xmlns:mml=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1998\/Math\/MathML\" display=\"inline\" id=\"M1\"><mml:mrow><mml:mn>0.4<\/mml:mn><mml:mspace width=\"0.167em\"\/><mml:mrow><mml:mi>\u00b1<\/mml:mi><\/mml:mrow><mml:mspace width=\"0.167em\"\/><mml:mn>0.2mm<\/mml:mn><\/mml:mrow><\/mml:math><\/jats:alternatives><\/jats:inline-formula> for segmentation, <jats:inline-formula id=\"pone.0325587.e002\"><jats:alternatives><jats:graphic xmlns:xlink=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1999\/xlink\" id=\"pone.0325587.e002g\" mimetype=\"image\" position=\"anchor\" xlink:href=\"info:doi\/10.1371\/journal.pone.0325587.e002\" xlink:type=\"simple\"\/><mml:math xmlns:mml=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1998\/Math\/MathML\" display=\"inline\" id=\"M2\"><mml:mrow><mml:mn>1.0<\/mml:mn><mml:mspace width=\"0.167em\"\/><mml:mrow><mml:mi>\u00b1<\/mml:mi><\/mml:mrow><mml:mspace width=\"0.167em\"\/><mml:mn>0.3mm<\/mml:mn><\/mml:mrow><\/mml:math><\/jats:alternatives><\/jats:inline-formula> for full bone reconstruction, and <jats:inline-formula id=\"pone.0325587.e003\"><jats:alternatives><jats:graphic xmlns:xlink=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1999\/xlink\" id=\"pone.0325587.e003g\" mimetype=\"image\" position=\"anchor\" xlink:href=\"info:doi\/10.1371\/journal.pone.0325587.e003\" xlink:type=\"simple\"\/><mml:math xmlns:mml=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1998\/Math\/MathML\" display=\"inline\" id=\"M3\"><mml:mrow><mml:mn>2.2<\/mml:mn><mml:mspace width=\"0.167em\"\/><mml:mrow><mml:mi>\u00b1<\/mml:mi><\/mml:mrow><mml:mspace width=\"0.167em\"\/><mml:mn>1.5mm<\/mml:mn><\/mml:mrow><\/mml:math><\/jats:alternatives><\/jats:inline-formula> for anatomical landmarks determination.

Combined with efficient implant manufacturing techniques, this solution could help answer the growing number of arthroplasties while reducing complications and improving patients\u2019 satisfaction.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1371\/journal.pone.0325587","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,6,25]],"date-time":"2025-06-25T18:23:02Z","timestamp":1750875782000},"page":"e0325587","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1371\/journal.pone.corrections_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":11,"title":["Fully automated workflow for designing patient-specific orthopaedic implants: Application to total knee arthroplasty"],"prefix":"10.1371","volume":"20","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-4201-2213","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Aziliz","family":"Guezou-Philippe","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Arnaud","family":"Clav\u00e9","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ehouarn","family":"Maguet","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ludivine","family":"Maintier","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Charles","family":"Garraud","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Jean-Rassaire","family":"Fouefack","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Val\u00e9rie","family":"Burdin","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Eric","family":"Stindel","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Guillaume","family":"Dardenne","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"340","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,6,25]]},"reference":[{"key":"pone.0325587.ref001","unstructured":"World Health Organisation.
