Self-Calibrated Hyperspectral Neural Radiance Fields for 3D Reconstruction of Bone and Bone Analogues

Abstract

Hyperspectral imaging (HSI) has gained increasing attention for bone assessment because it captures rich wavelength dependent information associated with mineralised tissue. HSI provides detailed spectral information related to material composition, while 3D geometric information supports the analysis of surface morphology and structural detail. However, integrating spectral and geometric information remains challenging, particularly when conventional reconstruction pipelines depend on external pose estimation. To address this challenge, we propose BoNeRF-HS, a self-calibrated hyperspectral neural radiance field for 3D reconstruction. BoNeRF-HS jointly optimises camera intrinsics, volume density, and hyperspectral radiance, removing the need for COLMAP based poses. To improve spectral modelling, we incorporate a gated spectral adapter head that learns wavelength dependent radiance features for hyperspectral view synthesis. We evaluate BoNeRF-HS on a multi-view hyperspectral dataset containing mouse bone, trabecular bone analogue, and cortical bone analogue samples. Experimental results demonstrate that our framework achieves improved reconstruction quality, and better preservation of bone surface details compared with existing approaches.
