Cadaveric human right hand imaged for the needs of the Anatomically Precise Revolutionary Implant for Bone Conserving Osteoarthritis Treatment (APRICOT) project using a high-resolution x-ray microfocus computed tomography system at the x-ray histology laboratory, University of Southampton. Left pane (A-C): volume renderings of the hand depicting the positioning and the segmentation of the index and thumb fingers for further analysis. Right pane: (D,I) top and (E,J) bottom view of volumetric rendering of the segmented finger volumes. (F,K) SD projection across the segmented volume after the removal of all information deeper than 10 voxels from the surface (skin). (G,L) Edge image of (F,K) and (H,M) skeleton of the binarized (G,L) images (Multimedia Appendix 3).
