Evolution of a Patient-Matched Implant
Through the union of technology and personal attention, surgeons and patients benefit from the most advanced orthopedic designs available.
- 3-D reconstruction of CT image data
- Translation of CT image to CAD/CAM environment
- Computer controlled machining for dimensional precision
- Patented design process for CT-generated implants
- 3–4 week lead time upon design approval
- Accelerated response for cases involving trauma and oncology
Step 1
3-D reconstruction of a typical acetabular revision
Step 2
Translation of CT data to a fused deposition modeler provides a true patient representation
Step 3
Anatomical model used to create an implant prototype
Information Gathering Process
- Surgeon’s clinical expertise and guidance
- X-rays and CT data
- Invaluable implant design tool
- Available for pre-surgical planning and intraoperative visualization.
- Description and design rationale
- Overlays and templates
- 3-D reconstructions and density studies (CT data required)
- Cost and delivery schedule
