This study's objective was to figure out an efficient and accurate way to measure boney landmarks on a patient. The patients were alternately standing and lying down on a table. The point was to provide feedback to new physicians, to help standardize their practices, and to ensure repeatability in the process. We designed and implemented a program that used mathematical methods and high-resolution cameras to try and achieve these goals. In the end, our program addressed all the objectives with an easy-to-use interface. It has already proved itself in at least one workshop setting.
