At present the interest in medical field about the generation of three-dimensional digital models of anatomical structures increases due to the widespread diffusion of CAS--computer assisted surgery--systems. Most of them are based on CT--computer tomography--or MR--magnetic resonance--data volumes but sometimes this information is not available; there are only few X-ray, ultrasound or fluoroscopic images.
This paper describes the study and the development of a script for a commercial software package (3ds Max) able to reconfigure the template model of a femur starting from two orthogonal images representing the specific patient's anatomy.
The script was used in several tests as summarized in this paper and the results appear to be interesting and acceptable, even for the medical experts that evaluated them.
The script developed in this work allows the generation of the 3D model of a femur in a very simple way (the user interface has been developed obeying to the main usability guidelines) and using a widespread commercial package. The quality of the results can be compared to the quality of more expensive and specialized systems.
由于计算机辅助手术（CAS）系统的广泛普及，目前医学领域对生成解剖结构的三维数字模型的兴趣日益增加。大多数此类系统基于计算机断层扫描（CT）或磁共振（MR）数据体，但有时无法获取这些信息；仅有少量X射线、超声或荧光透视图像。
本文描述了一个用于商业软件包（3ds Max）的脚本的研究与开发，该脚本能够从代表特定患者解剖结构的两张正交图像开始重新配置股骨的模板模型。
本文总结了该脚本在多次测试中的应用情况，结果即便对于评估这些结果的医学专家而言也显得有趣且可接受。
本研究开发的脚本能够以非常简单的方式（遵循主要可用性准则开发了用户界面）并使用广泛使用的商业软件包生成股骨的三维模型。其结果质量可与更昂贵的专业系统相媲美。
