          Abstract

          Cosmetic doctor utilizes the position, size and shapes of female's breast to judge whether the breast is under steady-state condition after breast implant plastic surgery. Since, doctor evaluates the breast condition with the subjective discrimination (such as vision, sense of touch) without using the objective physical parameters auxiliary. This study uses the 3D optics scanner editing 3D image to obtain full-scale 3D female breasts image. The CAD system converts the breast position, size and shapes, as the length of the curve between UBL (upper breast line) and NBL (nipple base line), the length of the curve between NBL and LBL (lower breast line), breast volume and breasts congruence rate. The stability after the breast implant plastic surgery is one of the important successful indexes of plastic surgery, so with the continuity analysis the breast curve length, volume and congruence rate can let the doctor really grasp the stability of the breast after plastic surgery.
