Abstract

A method of analysing medical images showing at least a portion of a bone to determine one or more bone parameters for the at least one portion of a bone is described. The method comprises determining a region of interest of the medical image and identifying a boundary of at least one of an inner edge and an outer edge of cortical bone of the at least one portion of the bone within the region of interest. At least one boundary of trabecular bone of the at least one portion of the bone within the region of interest is then identified and the identified boundaries are used to determine at least one of the following bone parameters: orientation, bone mineral density, length, width of trabecular structure, for the at least one portion of bone within the region of interest.
