文摘Most implantation cases are implemented using implants selected from the available standard set, but in some cases, only those implants conforming to individual patient's skeletal morphology can serve the purpose. This paper proposes a new approach to design and fabricate custom-made exact-fit medical implants. With a real surgical case as the example,technical design details are presented; and three algorithms are given respectively for segmentation based on object features, triangular mesh defragmentation and mesh cutting.
