Abstract

This project investigates the suitability of using RP technology and associated medical software solutions to transfer 2D Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine (DICOM) data into 3d Standard Triangle Language (STL) data. This data is then utilized using medical software solutions to manufacture preope rative planning models and customized medical implants for the benefit of patients and surgical planning teams alike. The project also gives an overview of relevant subject matter such as medical scanning, preoperative planning models, customized implants, jigs and biocompatible materials. Case studies are included as a method of illustrating how the different technologies integrate and function to produce tangible successful outcomes that make a significant difference in medical interventions.
