Automatic calculation using the high-resolution cortical thickness measurement from clinical CT data. The technique relies on a mathematical model of the anatomy and imaging system, which is fitted to the data at a large number of sites around the femur. Given prior segmentation of the tibial diaphysis, CT values are examined along short lines that straddle and are perpendicular to the cortex
