In order to quickly calculate the optimal fitting position of the orthopedic plate on the surface of broken bone to reduce the repeated adjustment times of the orthopedic plate during the surgical operation, a rapid calculation method of orthopedic plate fit based on improved Iterative Closest Point (ICP) algorithm was proposed. Firstly, under the guidance of the doctor, the fitting area was selected on the surface of the broken bone, and the point cloud of the inner surface for the orthopedic plate was extracted by using the angle between the normal vectors of the surface points for the orthopedic plate. Then, the two groups of point cloud models were smoothed, and the grid sampling method was adopted to simplify the point cloud models, after these operations, the characteristic relationship between the point clouds was used for the initial registration. Finally, the boundary and internal feature key points of the inner surface point cloud model of the orthopedic plate were extracted, K-Dimensional Tree (KD-Tree) was used to search the adjacent points, so that the feature key points of the orthopedic plate and the selected area of the broken bone surface were accurately registered by ICP. Taking tibia as the example to carry out experiments, and the results show that the proposed method can improve the registration efficiency while maintaining relatively high registration degree compared with other registration algorithms proposed in recent years. The proposed algorithm can realize the rapid registration between different damage types of tibia and orthopedic plate, and it is universal to other damaged bones.
