Figure 2. Number of trials in which the TKA implant positioning program system proposed the size in each size category (1, 2, 3, 4, or 5 for the femur (top) and 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6 for the tibia (bottom)) per surgeon (SA: surgeon A; SB: surgeon B, etc.).

Table II. Mean and standard deviation for each of the five surgeons for the six datasets corresponding to the six degrees of freedom of the femoral implant positioning.
Table III. Mean and standard deviation for each of the five surgeons for the six datasets corresponding to the six degrees of freedom of the tibial implant positioning.
Figure 3. 3D visualization of the large variability for different landmarks acquired manually. For visualization only, these manual landmarks have been displayed on the BoneMorphing 3D models (color version available at online).
