Fθ:(S,T,g){(c^k,Σ^k)R3×S++3    k=1,,K}\mathcal{F}_\theta: (\mathcal{S}, \mathcal{T}, g) \longmapsto \left\{ (\hat{\mathbf{c}}_k, \hat{\mathbf{\Sigma}}_k) \in \mathbb{R}^3 \times \mathbb{S}_{++}^3 \;\Big|\; k = 1, \dots, K \right\}
Variable Definitions & Dimensionality:
S\mathcal{S}:External patient surface point cloud (N = 4,096 points on ∂Ω_body)
T\mathcal{T}:Set of K = 121 anatomical queries (visceral organs, vascular & skeletal)
gg:Biological sex prior (Female: g = 0, Male: g = 1)
c^k\hat{\mathbf{c}}_k:Predicted 3D Euclidean centroid coordinate [X, Y, Z] in mm
Σ^k\hat{\mathbf{\Sigma}}_k:Calibrated 3x3 epistemic spatial covariance matrix

Unlike conventional ionizing CT and MRI modalities that acquire direct volumetric slices, Surface2Anatomy solves the inverse boundary value problem: estimating the exact 3D internal metric centroids of internal anatomical organs strictly from the geometric topology of the external body surface.
