RAPID PROTOTYPING

Medical applications
3DIEMME can support the virtual 3D modelling by providing low-cost physical models to practically simulate the surgeries, reducing the operating time and increasing the communication between doctors and patients.
This communication is often a critical key of success for surgeries such as orthopedics, maxillo-facial and dental implants planning. The supplied three dimensional models are built directly from the patient’s CT scans and they accurately reproduce the volume of interest anatomical features, empowering the communication and enabling the patient to really take informed decisions regarding his medical care.

3D models practical applications
- Pre-operative planning: the planning on the patient physical models reduces the operating times, lowers the costs and improves the patient’s post-operative recovery thanks to the surgery site access optimization. As a consequence the hospital admission times are reduced too. Studies samples:
- Dental implants planning
- Bone screws trajectory planning
- Surgery site access
- Surgical instrumentation testing
- Surgical techniques training
- Custom implants and prosthesis manufacturing: phisycal models enable the manufacturing companies to build custom prosthesis quickly and in a cost-effective way
- Internal communication: communication improvement between professional operators, especially for multi-disciplinar surgeries.
- External communication: communication improvement with the patient, and resultant increased trust in the surgery and in the expected result
- Anatomic studies: realization of models for anatomical studies focused on medicine students training.
