Starting with polygonised 3D data, we can generate a CAD surface or solid model through a surface reconstruction process. Surface reconstruction makes the model accessible for further processing in any CAx system.
Using modern image processing software, we process slice image data from medical computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scanners, as well as measurement points from 3D scanners. Processed datasets form the basis for surface reconstruction.
Applications:
- 3D data for the virtual fitting of patient-specific implants
- Bone databases for the development of anatomically accurate, standardised implants
- CAD models for FEM analyses
- Design optimisation or functional optimisation of digital master models for the manufacture of orthoses and prostheses
