Aspects of the present disclosure involve systems, methods, computer program products, manufacturing processes and the like, for utilizing a series of images of a patients anatomy to determine an estimation of relevant lengths and angles and other dimensions for use during a hip replacement procedure, which may be used to create one or more femur and/or acetabulum cavity implants or inserts useful in a partial or total hip replacement. In one particular embodiment, a jig mechanism for providing a scraper of the acetabulum cavity may be created with the information of the patients anatomy. Further, the location of these features in the images may be determined by analyzing the gray scale value of one or more pixels around a selected point on the image. The pixel with the lowest gray scale value may then be assumed to be the edge of the cortical bone in the 2D image.
