1. A method of mapping a representation of a model bone into an image scan of a target bone:

  • registering a generated portion of the representation into the image scan of the target bone using a translational transformation;

    registering the generated portion of the representation into the image scan of the target bone using a similarity transformation;

    registering a boundary portion of the representation into the image scan of the target bone using an affine transformation; and

    registering the boundary portion of the representation into the image scan of the target bone using a spline transformation.
