Patient-specific 3D-printed models

  • Hands-on preoperative planning: Patient-specific, 3D-printed anatomical models provide tactile feedback, allowing for precise pre-bending of fixation plates to conform to the patient’s bone structure
  • Enhanced accuracy and efficiency: Reduce intraoperative adjustments, shorten surgery time, and improve precision

Digital visualization

  • Gain deeper anatomical insights: Convert medical images into interactive 3D models for a comprehensive view of complex structures
  • Enhance preoperative planning: Visualize fractures, deformities, and bone alignment in high detail before surgery
  • Streamline surgical workflow: Plan and simulate complex procedures digitally to optimize OR time

Personalized surgical instruments

  • Patient-specific guides and templates: Design personalized surgical instruments tailored to individual patient anatomy
  • Improved surgical precision: Support more accurate osteotomies and implant placements with highly personalized tools
  • Manage intraoperative uncertainty: Reduce surgical guesswork and enhance efficiency

AI-enabled automatic segmentation in Mimics

Leverage the power of AI to accelerate 3D model creation and optimize preoperative planning.

Optimize your team’s expertise

Spend less time on segmentation and more time on high-value tasks — improving consistency and reducing training time.

We are definitely saving time. In fact, 3D software and printing technology has enabled us to reduce surgery times by up to 50% for orthopaedic applications such as scaphoid surgery.
