The Clavicle Matching Program (CMP) is a computer program that compares the shape of collarbones to better help the Defense POW/MIA Accounting Agency find a possible match to someone still missing. When historical data, DNA and other contextual information aren't available to narrow down the list, the CMP can be used. First, the clavicles in each of the radiographs were digitally traced to create an outline. Then the clavicles in the lab are 3D scanned using a surface scanner (Artec Space Spider). The CMP compares the scans from multiple angles to the traced outlines and identifies any similarities. The program can create a shortlist of names for further analysis that may lead to identification. The pictured elements are part of the Agency's reference collection and do not depict casework.
